Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

  • Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Tapioca Starch, Modified Cornstarch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Artificial Colors (Yellow 5, Red 3, Yellow 6, +1 more): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
  • Processed Dairy Ingredients (Sodium Caseinate (A Milk Derivative), Soy Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.

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.
