Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Caramel Hard Candies scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Sweeteners (Sweetener Acesulfame K): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
- Sugar Alcohols (Sweetener Isomalt): Modified sweeteners common in diet UPF products.
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin Emulsifier): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Candy, this is among the less processed of the 21,778 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
