Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Cake scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Artificial Colors (Blue 1 Lake, Yellow 5 Lake, Yellow 6, +1 more): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa Processed With Alkali, Chocolate Liquor): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Emulsifiers (Glycerin, Mono & Diglycerides, Polysorbate 80, +3 more): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Other Additives (Propylene Glycol Mono & Diesters Of Fatty Acids, Propylene Glycol, Carnauba Wax): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
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.
