Yes — CORNER Vanilla chocolate balls is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because it contains several industrial additives and processed ingredients beyond basic culinary components. Specifically: modified starch (an industrially processed thickener), flavourings (industrial flavor additives), glucose syrup (industrially extracted refined sugar syrup), stabiliser: pectins (gelling/stabilizing agent), emulsifier: soya lecithin (emulsifier), and glazing agent acacia gum (industrial glazing/stabilizing agent). According to the NOVA classification, the presence of such additives and refined syrups makes the product ultra-processed.
