Yes — Bakewell Tart Raw Fruit & Nut Bar is ultra-processed.
The ingredient list is valid. The bar contains 'natural flavourings', which are industrially produced flavor additives used to modify taste. According to NOVA, the presence of such flavorings makes the product ultra-processed, even though the other ingredients (dates, cashews, raisins) are minimally processed whole foods.
