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 size. 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, the Short size is low in cholesterol, sodium, carbohydrate and dietary fiber. Add it up with other items in the Starbucks nutrition calculator.
Allergens
The Flat White is not in Starbucks’ allergen information, so this site has no allergen information for it. That does not mean it is free of allergens: ask the restaurant before ordering if you have a food allergy.
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.
Ingredients
Milk, Brewed Espresso.
