What it takes to burn this off
Estimated for a typical 70kg (154 lb) adult — actual calories burned vary by body weight, pace, and fitness level. General reference only, not personalized advice.
This is the sugar in the dry mix alone, before frying and syrup-soaking. A finished piece made from this mix carries substantially more sugar once syrup is absorbed — see the Gulab Jamun entry for the finished-sweet range.
Figures are for general reference, not personalized medical guidance; always confirm with a lab-tested label or professional for dietary decisions.
Source: Retail product label transcription — 13.6g added sugar per 100g dry mix. Total carbs: general nutrition-database estimate for a flour/milk-solid gulab jamun dry mix (~55-65g carbs per 100g), notably higher than the sugar figure alone since the flour base is mostly starch. GI: high — refined flour base, plus the mix is typically finished in sugar syrup. (last verified 2026-08-26)
