Yes — Triple cookie chocolate is ultra-processed.

The product is classified as ULTRA-PROCESSED (UPF). It contains several industrial additives and processed ingredients that place it in NOVA group 4, including: whey powder (cows' milk), emulsifier: soya lecithin, flavouring, glucose syrup, glucose-fructose syrup, margarine made from vegetable oils and fats (a refined/industrial fat), and barley malt extract (an industrially processed extract used as a flavour enhancer). Any one of these would be enough to classify it as UPF; together they clearly indicate an ultra-processed product.
