Health notes
Chocolate confetti is primarily composed of sugar and artificial colors. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) permits the use of artificial colors in food. While generally recognized as safe (GRAS) when consumed in typical amounts as part of a balanced diet, excessive intake of added sugars can contribute to health concerns. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many artificial colors, but specific evaluations for 'chocolate confetti' as a whole are not typically found.
