Household Ingredients Compared › Smoked salmon (Singapore)

Smoked salmon: what's actually in it?

Smoked salmon is salmon (or salmon trout) cured with salt and a little sugar, then smoked. The lists on this page are short — fish, salt, sugar, smoke, plus the flavouring for the flavoured variants. The difference between products is the fish (salmon vs salmon trout), the flavouring (herbs, pepper, five peppers, dill and olive oil) and the salt. This page covers smoked salmon sold in Singapore. Fresh salmon, sashimi and canned salmon are separate categories.

This page does not give a health score or a “best” pick. It shows the ingredient list as printed and flags what is in it.

The headline, in 30 seconds

The shortest list panelled here is Fassler Traditional: salmon trout, salt and sugar. Three ingredients.
Fassler is the Singapore-made smoked salmon on this page (origin Singapore, made in Singapore for over two decades), in five flavours: Traditional, Black Pepper, Five Peppers, Fresh Herbs, and Dill and Olive Oil.
Live Well is the outlier on salt: its per-100 g panel gives 219.5 kcal and 25.8 g protein, and its origin as printed is Malaysia, not Singapore or Scotland.
The Pride of Scotland lists no sugar — Scottish salmon, salt and oakwood smoke only. It is the only panelled product without sugar in the list.
Watch the sodium figure on the Pride of Scotland panel: FairPrice prints sodium as 2.9 g per 100 g, which would be 2,900 mg — far above the Fassler 476 mg per 50 g. That is flagged on the page as printed, not silently corrected; it is most likely a salt/sodium labelling slip on the listing.

Seen but not verified — do not panel until checked

ST James Scottish Smoked Salmon — Gravadlax, Whiskey & Honey — seen at FairPrice; the listings describe hand-curing with sea salt and Demerara sugar (Gravadlax, with dill) and single malt Scotch whisky and honey (Whiskey & Honey), cold-smoked over oak, but no verbatim ingredient section was retrieved for either, so neither is panelled.
Aoraki NZ King Cold Smoked Salmon Slices — Frozen — seen at FairPrice, origin New Zealand, 100% New Zealand Aoraki origin, no artificial colour, additives or preservatives (per FairPrice); frozen, and no verbatim ingredient list was retrieved in this pass.
Other smoked salmon / smoked trout at Cold Storage, Giant, Sheng Siong, Don Don Donki, Meidi-Ya and Le Petit Depot — not inventoried with verified lists in this pass; needs in-store pack checks.
Smoked salmon in sushi/sashimi packs and smoked salmon in ready meals — different products; out of scope here.

Nutrition — what the numbers say

All figures in the table are as sold, per 100 g unless a separate per-serving table says otherwise. Sugars are total sugars as printed, not added sugars, unless the source states added sugars separately. No official Singapore Nutri-Grade (A–D) was found printed on any of these listings in this pass, so none is quoted here; no grade has been assigned.

Salt and sodium: salt = sodium × 2.5. The table shows sodium as printed (in mg) with the salt equivalent in brackets. Sodium is not presented as salt, and salt is not presented as sodium.

Total vs added sugars: Singapore packs list total sugars, not added sugars. A total-sugars figure is never labelled here as “added sugar”. The ingredient list remains the evidence for added sugar (sugar, glucose syrup, invert sugar syrup) versus naturally occurring sugars (lactose in milk/cream).

Open Food Facts is a community database and is flagged as secondary where used: the pack and the retailer nutrition section take precedence if they disagree. Figures marked “not stated” were not in the source retrieved; they are not estimated, borrowed from another variant, or copied across flavours.

Per 100 g, as sold

Product	Energy	Protein	Total fat	Saturated fat	Carbohydrate	Sugars	Sodium (salt equiv.)
Live Well Premium Salmon — Smoked (FairPrice)	219.5 kcal	25.8 g	12.7 g	not stated	not stated	not stated	not stated
The Pride of Scotland Oak Smoked Salmon (FairPrice)	197 kcal	22.7 g	11.7 g	3.0 g	0.1 g	0.1 g	2900 mg as printed (salt 7.25 g) — see flag

Click a column header to sort. Rows marked “not stated” always sort last — a dash is missing data, not zero. Salt equivalent = sodium × 2.5, shown in brackets.

Per-serving figures only (separate table — never sorted against per-100 g figures)

Product	Serving	Energy	Protein	Total fat	Saturated fat	Carbohydrate	Sugars	Sodium (salt equiv.)
Fassler Smoked Salmon — Fresh Herbs	50 g	70 kcal	11.02 g	2.61 g	0.52 g	0.62 g	0.25 g	476 mg (salt 1.19 g)
Fassler Smoked Salmon — Five Peppers	50 g	70 kcal	11.02 g	2.61 g	0.52 g	not stated	not stated	476 mg (salt 1.19 g)

Per-serving figures are quoted exactly as printed, with the serving size. They are not converted to per-100 g.

Seen but not verified (nutrition): no per-100 g nutrition panel was verified in this pass for any Fassler variant (Traditional, Black Pepper, Dill and Olive Oil). Their ingredient panels are unchanged; their nutrition figures are not estimated here, and the Fresh Herbs / Five Peppers per-serving figures above are not converted to per-100 g. Flag — Pride of Scotland sodium: FairPrice prints sodium as 2.9 g per 100 g. At face value that is 2,900 mg sodium (salt 7.25 g) per 100 g — about six times the Fassler figure scaled to 100 g (952 mg) and far above the Live Well range. That is almost certainly a salt/sodium labelling slip on the listing (2.9 g is a plausible salt figure, not sodium), but it is shown exactly as printed and flagged, not silently corrected to 1,160 mg. The SG pack must settle it.

How to read the label — the jargon, in plain English

Salmon trout: A trout bred and farmed like salmon, sold as smoked salmon trout. Fassler's fish is salmon trout, not Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) — the two are different fish, and the list says which one it is.
Cold smoked: Smoked at a low temperature so the fish stays raw-textured and silky. All the smoked salmon on this page is cold-smoked; hot-smoked salmon would be cooked and flaky.
Gravadlax / gravlax: Salmon cured in salt and sugar with dill, then cold-smoked (ST James Gravadlax) or served unsmoked. The cure is salt and sugar — the sugar is part of the cure, not a sweetening.
Oakwood smoke / wood smoke: The smoke source. Oak gives a particular flavour; the list names the wood where the producer states it.
Salt-reduced: A version cured with less salt (Fassler Fresh Herbs). Less salt preserves the fish less well, per FairPrice — the trade-off is stated on the listing, not hidden.

What this page is not

Not a health score, and not a “best” pick. The products on this page are different products, and this page does not rank them.
Not a taste test, and not a price comparison. Prices change weekly; ingredients change less often, but still change.
Not complete. The products in seen-but-not-verified are not yet panelled, for the verification reasons given, not hidden. Stock and formulations change, so no page claims permanent 100% completeness.

Sources and method

Checked 12 November 2026 from: FairPrice Singapore ingredient sections (Fassler Smoked Salmon Traditional, Five Peppers, Fresh Herbs, Black Pepper, Marinated Dill and Olive Oil; Live Well Premium Salmon Smoked; The Pride of Scotland Oak Smoked Salmon); FairPrice listings (ST James Gravadlax and Whiskey & Honey, Aoraki NZ King Cold Smoked Salmon Slices Frozen). Cold Storage publishes no ingredient list on any product page, so its shelf could not be panelled from its site. Nutrition section added 12 November 2026: figures are standardised to per 100 g where the source gives per-100 figures; per-serving-only figures are labelled as such and are not converted; sugars are total sugars as printed, not added sugars, unless the source states added sugars; salt = sodium × 2.5. Where a full pack list could not be verified, the product is in seen-but-not-verified instead of being panelled.
