Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Soybean And/Or Cottonseed Oils, Partially Hydrogenated Canola Oil And/Or Partially Hydrogenated Cottonseed Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate, Tbhq): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
Artificial Colors (Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Red 40): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
Emulsifiers (Mono- And Diglycerides, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate 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.
