Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Salty Caramel Cakes scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Starches (Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Modified Fats (Non-Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil Shortening (Canola, Palm, Modified Palm And Palm Kernel Oils)): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Glucose): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Caramel Filling [Corn Syrup, Sugar And/Or High Fructose Corn Syrup, Water, Sweetened Condensed Milk, Canola And Modified Palm And Modified Palm Kernel Oils, Whey Powder, Modified Tapioca Starch, Salt, Carrageenan, Pectin, Potassium Sorbate (Preservative), Tetrasodium Pyrophosphate, Artificial And Natural Flavor, Citric Acid]): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Other Additives (Monoglycerides): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
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.
