Filter coffee with single cream is a richer preparation adding fat and some calcium from cream, but significantly less calcium, protein, and iodine than milk-based coffee. Single cream is about 18% fat; a tablespoon adds around 30 kcal. It is a flavour choice rather than a nutritional upgrade, and the polyphenols from coffee remain the nutritional highlight.
Use single cream sparingly if monitoring calorie intake; it contributes saturated fat without the calcium and iodine benefit of milk. Enjoy for flavour, not nutrition.

* % Daily Value is the proportion of an adult
EU Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) supplied by 100g of this food.
NRVs are the labelling standard — the same basis as the “%RI” figures printed on
food packaging — so these percentages are directly comparable with a shop label.
They are a single adult figure and do not vary by age or sex, which is why they
sometimes differ from UK dietary reference values: the NRV for vitamin C is 80mg
where the UK RNI is 40mg. When Nutriofia assesses your own intake in the
reports and trackers, it uses the age- and sex-specific UK values instead.
Fibre is shown without a percentage. Our fibre values use the UK
Englyst NSP method, while the published 30g daily goal is an AOAC figure — the two
are measured differently and a single percentage would mislead.
