Creme Horns

Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Creme Horns scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

• Modified Starches (Modified-Potato Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
• Natural Flavors (Natural Vanilla Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
• Other Additives (Sodium Porpionate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
• Emulsifiers (Polysorbate 60 (Emuslifier)): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
• Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in 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.
