Label statement and nutrition as transmitted by the brand owner through GDSN; the record version is 2021-03-19 and no pack photograph has been read. It differs from the maker's 2022 digital label in three ways: ascorbic acid is declared, cocoa is listed before sugar, and the panel normalises to 6 g protein and about 200 mg calcium per bottle against 7 g and 216 mg. It is kept as the earlier of two label generations; the change date is unknown. Open Food Facts carries the same statement and the same per-100 ml figures verbatim, so it is the same line of evidence, not corroboration.

- Iron · mg
- 0 mg[3]known · exact · normalized
USDA records 0 mg; iron is a mandatory United States declaration, so this is read as a declared zero, and the maker's 2022 panel prints 0 mg as well.
USDA Branded Foods holds the brand owner's 2021 label panel normalised to 100 ml; the printed column behind it was not supplied. USDA states the serving as 285 ml while the pack declares 9.5 FL OZ (281 mL). Multiplied out, these figures match the maker's 2022 printed panel on every nutrient except protein (6 g against 7 g) and calcium (about 200 mg against 216 mg).

The maker's own digital label for UPC 012000003257: identity, net content, distributor block, and the Nutrition Facts, Ingredients and Allergens tabs, which the page loads as separate files. The page states its information was last updated on 2022-05-24 by Starbucks; that is a page date, not a known formulation date. SmartLabel renders the ingredient list as a nested list with no punctuation, so the parentheses and commas in `ingredients_text` are our rendering of that nesting, not transcribed characters. No photograph of the pack has been read.

About this product
Starbucks Frappuccino Mocha Light is the reduced-calorie version of the bottled Frappuccino coffee drink, sold in the United States in a 9.5 fl oz (281 mL) glass bottle.[1] The maker's digital label lists brewed Starbucks coffee and reduced-fat milk with sugar, cocoa, pectin and the sweeteners sucralose and acesulfame potassium, declares milk as an allergen, and prints 100 calories, 3 g of fat, 12 g of carbohydrate and 7 g of protein for the whole bottle.[1] Bottled Frappuccino is the work of the North American Coffee Partnership, the joint venture PepsiCo and Starbucks formed in 1994 so that ready-to-drink products carrying the Starbucks name could travel on Pepsi's distribution network; the 9.5 fl oz bottle was first produced in 1996.[2] The maker's digital label names that partnership, at Purchase, New York, as the distributor of this pack.[1]
More about this product
Two label generations are on record. The version the brand owner supplied to USDA Branded Foods, whose record dates from 2021, also declared ascorbic acid, listed cocoa ahead of sugar and worked out to 6 g of protein per bottle; the maker's page, updated in May 2022, has neither the ascorbic acid nor that order.[3] The barcode itself is an old one: the first Barcodepedia recorded it in 2007 under the title "Frappuccino Coffee Drink Mocha Lite Lowfat", with the container given as 9 oz.[4] Its GS1 company prefix, 012000, is the Pepsi prefix, recorded here against Pepsi-Cola North America, the entity USDA names as brand owner on Pepsi-labelled barcodes in that range.[5] The Starbucks name on the front belongs to Starbucks Corporation of Seattle, founded in 1971.[6]

- Earlier US label as supplied to USDA Branded Foods (GDSN): nutrient evidence: 13 / 13 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
- relationships · unknown: The GS1 prefix owner follows company/pepsi-cola-north-america because that stub states prefix 012000. The stub's own page records that prefix as derived from the USDA brand_owner field rather than from a registry record, and no GEPIR or GS1 US entry naming the licensee of 012000 could be retrieved from the server. USDA and Open Food Facts give this pack's brand owner as the parent, Pepsico Inc.
- ingredients · disputed: The maker's 2022 digital label lists seven ingredients and no ascorbic acid, and puts sugar before cocoa; the 2021 USDA GDSN record declares ascorbic acid and reverses that order. Both are kept as label revisions. No pack photograph has been read to confirm which list is on the shelf, and the change date is unknown.
- nutrition · disputed: The maker's 2022 panel prints 7 g protein and 216 mg calcium per bottle; the 2021 USDA record normalises to 6 g and about 200 mg for the same bottle. Every other nutrient agrees to within United States rounding.
- nutrition · disputed: The calcium line of the maker's panel prints "Calcium 216 g 15%": the unit is wrong for a 281 mL drink, and 15 % of the 1300 mg Daily Value is about 200 mg, not 216 mg. The number is recorded as printed, in mg.
- evidence · unknown: SmartLabel is the maker's digital label, not a photograph of the pack; its ingredient tab is a nested list with no punctuation and its panel is HTML, so printed line breaks, type sizes and any front-of-pack marks are unread.
- ingredients · unknown: Ascorbic acid is declared in the 2021 list, but the same record and Open Food Facts give vitamin C as 0; neither figure was checked against a printed panel, and the ingredient is absent from the 2022 label.
- identity · unknown: Whether the 9.5 fl oz Mocha Light bottle is still in production has not been confirmed by the maker. The April 2026 USDA Branded Foods release still carries the record with no discontinued date and the SmartLabel page for this UPC is live; PepsiCo's United States product-facts finder returns "Product not found" for this number, but that finder is keyed on an internal formula id, so it is not evidence of withdrawal.
- markets · not_researched: No retailer listing printing this exact consumer UPC was retrieved, so the Markets row carries no observed price. Listings found for the name describe 4-pack and 15-pack cases, which are different barcodes.
- images · unknown: No photograph of the pack is available under a reusable licence; Open Food Facts holds no images for this barcode.
- evidence · stale: Evidence was observed over a year ago; check for newer labels. Historical evidence remains valid.
- images · not_researched: No product photographs recorded.
