Yes — Nut Brittle is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because it contains industrial ingredients and additives such as glucose syrup and emulsifier: lecithins, which are characteristic of ultra-processed foods under the NOVA system. While it also includes minimally processed nuts, sugar, butter, honey, and milk powder, the presence of these UPF ingredients is sufficient to classify the overall product as ultra-processed.
