  • Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Artificial Colors (Yellow 5): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Dough Conditioners (L-Cysteine Hydrochloride): Industrial bread additives not used in home baking.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Carob Bean Gum, Cellulose Gum, Agar-Agar): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.

Within Cakes & Pastries, this product is more processed than about 16% of the 11,919 products we've analyzed.
