The Short Version
Commercial solid chocolate can be calorie-dense and contain substantial sugar and fat. Nutrition guidance, peer-reviewed reviews, and product data consistently support this limited wording. Individual amounts vary by chocolate type, formulation, and serving size.

Nutrient amounts vary substantially among dark, milk, white, and reduced-sugar chocolate products.
Values per 100 grams may appear much higher than amounts consumed in a typical serving.
Chocolate milk is a diluted beverage and is not directly comparable with solid chocolate.
