Chocolate Peanut Butter — A Healthier Nutella Alternative in Pakistan
Nutella is Pakistan’s most popular chocolate spread. It is also one of the least nutritious things you can put on your child’s roti in the morning.
A serving of Nutella contains 21 grams of sugar, 11 grams of fat mostly from palm oil, and just 2 grams of protein. It is essentially flavoured sugar with palm oil.
Zak’s Yard Chocolate Peanut Butter contains 6 grams of total sugar, zero added sugar, 12 grams of fat, and 8 grams of protein. And it tastes genuinely good.

Why Zero Added Sugar Matters in a Chocolate Product
The 6g of total sugar in Zak’s Yard Chocolate PB comes from the natural sugars found in peanuts and cocoa — not from added table sugar or glucose syrup. This is the same distinction between eating a piece of fruit (natural sugar) and drinking a soft drink (added sugar). The metabolic effect is different.
Natural sugars come packaged with fibre, protein, and fat that slow their absorption. Added sugar arrives without those buffers and hits the bloodstream fast. For children, diabetics, and anyone watching their sugar intake, this distinction is critical.
5 Ways to Use Zak's Yard Chocolate Peanut Butter
- On roti or toast: The obvious one — and it genuinely tastes better than Nutella because the peanut flavour comes through
- In overnight oats: 2 tablespoons stirred into oats with milk — a complete breakfast with protein, carbs, and healthy fat
- As a smoothie base: Blend with banana and milk for a chocolate-peanut protein shake
- In baking: Swirl into brownies, cookies, or energy balls for natural chocolate-peanut flavour
- As a fruit dip: Apple slices, banana, strawberries — all incredible with a small bowl of Chocolate PB
