Total Sugars
As mentioned above, the 35 grams of carbohydrates contribute about 54% of the total calories. Carbohydrates include one gram fiber and 14 grams total sugars.
High in Added Sugars
All 14 grams of total sugars are added sugars, including sugar, corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, and dextrose.
According to the FDA, “added sugars are a nutrient to get less of.” A key reason is because consuming foods with high added sugars may provide enough energy, but lack essential nutrients, fiber, or vitamins. That’s known as “empty calories”.
One maple frosted donut has about 55 calories from added sugars (21% of the total 260 calories).
Summary of Sugars in Maple Frosted Donut
Note: While sugars are found naturally in various fruits, vegetables, and dairy products, added sugars refer to sweeteners such as honey, syrups, and sucrose added during the production of foods.
