Sprinkles Be Mine

Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Sprinkles Be Mine scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

• Modified Fats (Fractionated Palm Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
• Artificial Colors (Red 3, Fd&C Red 40, Fd&C Yellow 5): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
• Other Additives (Confectioner'S Glaze (Shellac), Carnauba Wax): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
• Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
• Stabilizers & Gums (Gum Arabic, Cellulose Gum, Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
