- Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup, Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Artificial Flavors (Natural & Artificial Flavors): Synthetic flavors indicate industrial food production.
- Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate Preservative, Sodium Benzoate Preservative): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
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.
