Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Salted Caramel Cheesecake scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Flavors (Artificial Vanilla Flavor): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Vanilla Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Other Additives (Stabilizers (Xanthan Gum, Locust Bean Gum, Guar Gum)): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Ice Cream & Frozen Desserts, this product is more processed than about 38% of the 14,928 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
