Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (High-Maltose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Artificial Colors (Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, +1 more): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Other Additives (Emulsifier Blend (Mono- And Diglycerides, Soy Lecithin, Polysorbate 60), Carnauba Wax, Shellac): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Cookies & Crackers, this product is more processed than about 51% of the 18,630 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
