No — Single Origin - Intense Dark Cacao is not ultra-processed.
This chocolate contains only 100% cocoa with no industrial additives, refined syrups, emulsifiers, flavorings, or other cosmetic processing agents. Cocoa used on its own as a single culinary ingredient is considered minimally processed rather than an industrial formulation, so this product is not classified as ultra-processed under NOVA.

No — Single Origin - Intense Dark Cacao by Marks & Spencer is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). This chocolate contains only 100% cocoa with no industrial additives, refined syrups, emulsifiers, flavorings, or other cosmetic processing agents. Cocoa used on its own as a single culinary ingredient is considered minimally processed rather than an industrial formulation, so this product is not classified as ultra-processed under NOVA.
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
