Sweet Notes Hearts

Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Sweet Notes Hearts scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

• Modified Fats (Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Palm Kernel And/Or Palm)): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
• Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
• Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
• Emulsifiers (Glyceryl Monostearate And Soy Lecithin, Mono- And Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Chocolate, this product is more processed than about 67% of the 9,618 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
