Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Candy Writers Confectionery Coating scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Artificial Colors (Blue 2 Lake, Yellow 6 Lake, Red 40 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa Powder): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Baking Supplies, this product is more processed than about 55% of the 5,060 products we've analyzed.

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