The current ingredients
What the manufacturer lists
Milk chocolate 31.5% (including sugar, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, skimmed milk powder, concentrated butter, soya lecithins and vanillin); sugar; palm oil; wheat flour; hazelnuts 10.5%; skimmed milk powder; milk powder; chocolate; fat-reduced cocoa; soya lecithins; sodium bicarbonate; salt; vanillin.
The deliberate allergens in the manufacturer list are milk, soya, wheat and hazelnuts. Check the pack for current may-contain wording and for recipe differences between Classic, White, Dark and ice-cream products.

Read beyond the headline
Three distinctions that prevent a misleading answer
01
Lecithin appears in more than one component
The milk chocolate, the separate chocolate component and the wider recipe each use soya lecithins. Lecithin helps fat and other ingredients remain evenly mixed. The current manufacturer page states soya explicitly, which is more informative than the code alone.
02
The percentage belongs to a named component
Milk chocolate is 31.5% of the product and hazelnuts are 10.5% on the current UK page. Those figures should not be borrowed for Kinder Bueno White, Dark, ice cream or another market because the product and recipe differ.
03
Palm oil is an ingredient, not an E-number
Palm oil appears as a named fat. It does not receive an E-number merely because it is used in a manufactured food. Keeping ordinary ingredients separate from regulated additive functions makes the label easier to read accurately.

A reliable way to check
What this page can and cannot answer
Is this the recipe for every Kinder Bueno Classic product?
No. It covers Classic, 21.5 g bar only. Closely named variants can have different ingredients and allergens.
Why do some additive pages show an E-number that is not printed here?
UK labels can identify an additive by its specific name rather than its E-number. NutraSafe links the declared name to the corresponding reference entry where the match is clear.
What should I trust if my pack differs?
Trust the current physical pack for the food you are about to consume, particularly for allergens. The web source and this guide are dated snapshots.
