The catch

Every gram of sugar here is added sugar, 5g per 2 tablespoon serving, plus palm oil and cocoa butter, so it is closer to a treat than to plain almond butter. (source)

The honest take

This is a dessert leaning almond butter, not a plain one. A 2 tablespoon serving gives you 200 calories, 5g protein, and 16g fat, which is normal for almond butter, but all 5g of the sugar here is added sugar from organic powdered sugar, plus it uses palm oil and cocoa butter to get that creamy vanilla frosting taste. If you want the whole food version, classic almond butter with just almonds and salt is the cleaner pick. Reach for this one when you specifically want a sweet, spreadable treat and you are fine trading a little added sugar for flavor.
