Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch (Corn)): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Stabilizers & Gums (Carob Bean Gum, Potassium Sorbate (As A Preservative)Agar, Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Other Additives (Sodium Aluminum Sulphate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor, Vanillin): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.

Within Cakes & Pastries, this product is more processed than about 16% of the 11,919 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
