Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids, Dextrin): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Emulsifiers (Glycerin, Mono- And Diglycerides, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gum, Guar 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.
