Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Glucose, Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Stabilizers & Gums (Strawberry Filling [Sugar, Strawberry Puree, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Starch, Guar Gum, Locust Bean Gum, Xanthan Gum, Citric Acid, Coconut Oil, Carmine Color, Artificial Flavor, Sodium Benzoate (Preservative)], Xanthan Gum, Guar Gum, +1 more): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa, Cocoa (Processed With Alkali)): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.

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.
