Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Industrial Enzymes (Enzyme (Wheat Flour And 2% Or Less Of Each Of The Following: Salt, Enzymes)): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant 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.
