    1. Hi Mel, as I’m not a registered dietitian/nutritionist I do not provide nutritional information on my website. I’ve looked into using an online service that generates nutritional labels, but those only give an estimate and is not very accurate, and I’d rather not provide inaccurate labels. Sorry about that!
