Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Cupcake Sundaes Kit 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.
  • Artificial Colors (Red 40. Frosting Mix: Natural And Artificial Flavors, Yellow 5, Blue 1, +2 more): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Modified Fats (Non-Hydrogenated Palm Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
  • Other Additives (Emulsifier (Monoglycerides, Tocopherol, Ascorbic Acid, Citric Acid), Confectioner'S Glaze, Carnauba Wax, +1 more): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Acacia Gum, Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

Within Baking Mixes, this product is more processed than about 55% of the 5,176 products we've analyzed.

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