Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Glazed Mini Pies scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Hi-Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup Solids): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Modified Fats (Palm Oil & Fractionated Palm Oil, Each Of The Following: Vegetable Shortening (Palm Oil, Fractionated Palm Oil, Mono- & Diglycerides, Polysorbate 60)Food Starch-Modified): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate (To Protect Freshness), Sodium Benzoate (To Protect Freshness)): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Artificial Colors (Yellow 5, Yellow 6): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa, Cocoa Processed With Alkali, Chocolate Liquor): 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.
