Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup, High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Coconut Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
Processed Meats (Gelatin): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
Modified Starches (Modified Tapioca Starch, Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Stabilizers & Gums (Locust Bean Gum, Xanthan Gum): 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.
