Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Pudding Cake scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids, Corn Syrup, High Fructose Corn Syrup, +1 more): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Artificial Colors (Yellow 5): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate (As Preservative), Sodium Benzoate (As Preservative)): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Emulsifiers (Mono And Diglycerides, Sorbitan Monostearate, Polysorbate 60, +1 more): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

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.
