Drizzle Topping

Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

• Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
• Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
• Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
• Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa Powder (Alkalized)): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
• Emulsifiers (Mono- And Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Baking Supplies, this product is more processed than about 55% of the 5,060 products we've analyzed.

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