Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Donuts scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Palm Kernel, Coconut And Palm Oils)): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa Processes With Alkali): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin, Mono- And Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Other Additives (Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
- Natural Flavors (Artificial & Natural Flavor, Vanilla Extract): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
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.
