Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Grand Cheesecake Selection scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Flavors (Artificial Vanilla Flavor): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Light Corn Syrup (Corn Syrup, Salt, Vanilla Extract [Vanilla Beans, Water, Ethyl Alcohol])): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Processed Fruit Products (Unsweetened Chocolate): 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.
