- Artificial Colors (Yellow 6): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Chemical Preservatives ([Calcium Propionate, Potassium Sorbate (To Retain Freshness)]): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Other Additives (Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Cakes & Pastries, this product is more processed than about 16% of the 11,919 products we've analyzed.
