- Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Emulsifiers (Glycerine, Mono- And Diglycerides Of Fatty Acids, Sorbitan Monostearate, +3 more): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Flavor Enhancers (Disodium Diphosphate): Industrial flavor enhancement common in UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum, Sodium Alginate): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Cakes & Pastries, this product is more processed than about 16% of the 11,919 products we've analyzed.
