Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Chocolate Sundae Cupcakes 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.
- Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa Processed With Alkali): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Of: Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum, Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Other Additives (Propylene Glycol Mono & Diesters Of Fatty Acids, Propylene Glycol, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Emulsifiers (Sorbitan Monostearate, Soy Lecithin, Polysorbate 80, +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.
