Starbucks Cheese Danish: nutrition and allergens

Nutrition facts

Percentages are the share of the FDA Daily Value for adults and children 4 and over, worked out from Starbucks’ published amounts (how % Daily Value works). A dash means Starbucks does not publish that value for this item. Not published for this item: added sugars.

Using the FDA’s rule of thumb that 5% of the Daily Value or less per serving is low and 20% or more is high, one serving is high in saturated fat (45%) and is low in dietary fiber. Add it up with other items in the Starbucks nutrition calculator.

Allergens

According to Starbucks, the Cheese Danish contains milk, egg and wheat.

Starbucks lists allergens only for its own food items; beverages and most third-party packaged snacks have no allergen list in its menu data, so only part of the menu has allergen information. Because cafés share equipment to store, prepare and serve unpackaged products, Starbucks says it cannot guarantee any of them are allergen-free; for beverages it refers customers to the ingredient statement or the package label.
