If you want to have your barista coffee at home or a quick afternoon pick me up, you might be a lover of coffee sachets, but what about Nescafe latte sachets? Are they high in syns?
Nescafe latte sachets have varying syns according to the flavour that you choose, their regular latte version has 3.5 syns when made up as prepared, making them low in syns if you are after a barista-style of coffee.
To find out more about Nescafe latte syns, we've composed a guide below which will cover how many Nescafe lattes you can have in slimming world, some syn values, and how they are compared to regular lattes and some low syn alternatives from other brands.
At 3.5 syns for one latte, you could have up to 4 of these lattes before using up all of your daily syn allowances, making them an excellent low syn hot drink choice to have at home.
These lattes remain low in syns since they are made with skimmed milk powder rather than full fat, we would suggest having them in moderation however since they have around 5g of sugar in a sachet.
Nescafe has a huge range of coffee sachets with varying flavours and syn values, we've listed them down below to help keep you on track.
At 3.5 syns a sachet, Nescafe latte sachets are pretty low in syns, the regular medium-sized latte from a coffee shop made with skimmed milk has 7.5 syns, so you have a good amount of syns by having your sachet version at home.
To keep syns even lower we suggest sweetener rather than sugar to sweeten up your latte if needed since a teaspoon of sugar can add 1 syn to your drink.
If you find Nescafe latte sachets too high in syns or you're looking to change it up with some other easy to make hot drinks, we've got some low syn alternatives to stock up on below.
To conclude, Nescafe lattes are low in syns, at 3.5 syns a sachet, to reduce syns further we suggest choosing their skinny latte sachets which only have 2.5 syns, and do drink in moderation due to added sugar content in these drinks.
Switching to sachets over a regular takeout coffee could save you up to half the syns in your drink and help with your weight loss, remember to use sweetener rather than sugar to keep syns low and if you make your latte at home, use the semi-skimmed milk as your healthy extra A!
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.
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.
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.
