NOVA Classification

The ingredient list is valid. The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because it contains sunflower lecithins, which are emulsifiers, and therefore an industrial additive according to NOVA. The rest of the ingredients (chocolate made from cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, and rice) are not in themselves UPF, but the presence of lecithins is sufficient to classify the overall product as UPF.
