- Processed Fruit Products (Dutch Process Cocoa (Processed With Alkali)): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Gellan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
