Climate footprint in kg CO2e/kg
Detailed background data
It has been assumed that the food processing industry is located in Denmark. The ingredients chocolate and nuts are obtained from Nemlig (2020e) for a commercial product from 'Royal' brand. Roasted nuts are modelled as roasted cashew nuts. Other ingredients from Agribalyse for crèpe production (ADEME 2020h). A mass balance is carrried out assuming that the final product will have 97% dry mass acording to the FRIDA database (DTU 2019), which is much higher than in ingredients. It is estimated that per kg final product, 1.9 kg ingredients are needed and 0.9 kg water are evaporated. Manufacturing energy assumed as average for cakes from Konstantas et al. (2018). Retail is modelled assuming the following storage: Ambient. See more details as well as literature references in the methodoly report on: www.denstoreklimadatabase.dk.
Data on inputs and outputs of the food processing industry is modelled using: Nemlig (2020e); ADEME (2020h); Konstantas et al. (2019); DTU (2019).
