Why Are Bounty Bars So High In Syns?

At 7 syns per chocolate bounty bar, these chocolate bars are very high in syns, you can have up to two before using all of your daily syn allowance.

These bounty bars get their high syn value from the sugar and also the fat due to the desiccated coconut inside of the bar, for example, one bounty bar has up to 13g of sugar and 7.5g of fat.

It's important to note that one bounty bar contains two portions of chocolate too, if you ate both you would be using 14 syns which is most of your syn allowance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are syn values calculated?

Syn values are calculated using a formula based on calories, saturated fat and sugar content per serving. They’re not the same as calories — a product can be low in calories but higher in syns if it’s high in sugar or fat. Always check the official Slimming World app for the most accurate and up-to-date syn values.

Do syn values change?

Yes. When manufacturers reformulate their products, the syn value can go up or down. This is why we recommend double-checking with the Slimming World app or your consultant, especially if a product’s packaging has changed recently.

How many syns should I have per day?

Most Slimming World members work with 5 to 15 syns per day. Your consultant will advise on the right amount for you. The key is to use your syns on the things you enjoy most — whether that’s a chocolate bar, a glass of wine, or a packet of crisps.
