Pastries, Danish, retail

Danish pastries are baked products made from layered pastry dough. These figures describe retail pastries in assorted shapes and flavours. They mainly provide carbohydrate and fat: per 100g, they contain 44g of carbohydrate, including 17g of sugars, and 29g of fat, including 12g of saturated fat.

Carbohydrate and fat provide energy. Eating too much saturated fat can raise LDL cholesterol levels in the blood.
