Decadent Mousse Mix

Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

• Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
• Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids, Dextrin): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
• Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
• Artificial Flavors (Natural & Artificial Flavor): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
• Processed Fruit Products (Dutch-Processed Cocoa): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.

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.
