Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Half New Year Shadow Cake scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

  • Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Soybean And/Or Cottonseed And/Or Palm Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Tapioca Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Artificial Flavors (Natural & Artificial Flavor): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
  • Artificial Colors (Artificial Color (Including Red 40, Red 3, Blue 1, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Blue 2)): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.

Within Cakes & Pastries, this product is more processed than about 16% of the 11,919 products we've analyzed.
