Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Artificial Colors (Red 40, Red 3, Red 40 Lake, +4 more): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate And Benzoic Acid, Potassium Sorbate And Sodium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Other Additives (Propylene Glycol Esters, Carnauba Wax, Confectioner'S Glaze): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate 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.
