Here’s what I could find about Ghana Best Hausa Koko Flour, a type of spiced millet porridge mix, based on similar products (assuming the brand follows the traditional Hausa Koko profile)
While specific details for the “Ghana Best” brand are scarce, Hausa Koko flours generally include the following components:
Primary base: Millet and/or sorghum flour
Spices & flavourings: Ginger, grains of selim (a native spice), cloves, pepper (Guinea pepper, black peppercorns), sometimes African nutmeg and chili
No artificial additives or preservatives are commonly used in authentic blends
Depending on the exact grain blend and spices, common nutritional estimates are:
Calories: ~380–420 kcal
Protein: ~6–11 g
Carbohydrates: ~70–90 g (including starches; sugars often negligible)
Fat: ~3–5 g
Fibre: ~3–8 g
Salt: Typically very low (~0–0.02 g), unless added separately
Gluten-free grains: Millet and sorghum are naturally gluten-free, making Hausa Koko suitable for gluten-sensitive individuals—provided production avoids cross-contamination
Spice sensitivity: Contains common spices like ginger, cloves, and pepper — possibly potent for spice-sensitive individuals (e.g., acid reflux).
Allergens: Typically free from major allergens such as wheat, dairy, soy, eggs, nuts, and seafood
Mixed with water and boiled to a porridge, then sweetened with sugar or tempered with milk, as preferred. Commonly paired with sides like koose (bean cakes), bofrot (doughnuts), or bread
