Sugar Wafer

Sugar Wafer is a thin, crispy sweet biscuit often used in desserts or eaten as a light snack; it is known for its layered wafer texture and sugary surface. It is energy-dense and contains about 43g of sugar per 100g, which is the most notable nutritional feature. While convenient and tasty, it is typically ultra-processed and low in fiber and micronutrients, so it’s best enjoyed occasionally or swapped for whole-grain or lower-sugar alternatives when eaten regularly.
