Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Mini Chocolate Donuts scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Palm Oil And Fractionated Palm Oil, Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Palm Kernel, Coconut And Palm Oil)): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate Preservative): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Dextrin): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa Processed With Alkali): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin, Mono-And Diglycerides, Polysorbate 80): 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.
