Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Macarons scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Sugar Alcohols (Stabiliser: Sorbitol): Modified sweeteners common in diet UPF products.
- Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa Powder, Low Fat Cocoa Powder): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Thickeners: Acetylated Distarch Adipate-Pectin-Carrageenans): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Green Tea Powder 0.05%): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
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.
