Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Red Velvet Mini Donuts scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch, Modified Wheat Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup Solids, Dextrin): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Propionate And Potassium Sorbate (To Retain Freshness)): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Emulsifiers (Glycerin, 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.
