Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Triple Layer Cake scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Cottonseed Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Carrageenan, Cellulose Gel, Cellulose Gum, +2 more): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Emulsifiers (Mono- And Diglycerides, Polysorbate 60, Polysorbate 80, +1 more): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Other Additives (Propylene Glycol Mono-And Diesters Of Fatty Acids, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate 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.
