Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Artificial Flavors (Rum Flavor (Propylene Glycol, Water, Artificial Flavor)): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Cake (Sugar, Modified Corn Starch, Corn Syrup Solids, Non Fat Dry Milk, Mono- And Diglycerides, Baking Powder (Sodium Bicarbonate, Sodium Aluminum Phosphate, Monocalcium Phosphate), Salt, Propylene Glycol Monoesters, Modified Tapioca Starch, Soybean Oil, Sodium Aluminosilicate (Flow Aid), Beta Carotene (Color), Carboxymethylcellulose, Artificial Flavor)): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

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.
