These include: glucose-fructose syrup, glucose syrup, invert sugar syrup (all industrially processed sugars); dextrose (a refined isolated sugar); palm oil (a highly refined oil); gelling agent pectins; humectant glycerol; acidity regulators (calcium citrates, sodium citrates), and added flavourings. It also contains skimmed milk powder, which is pre-identified as a UPF ingredient. The presence of these ingredients, especially the pre-identified UPF ingredients dextrose, skimmed milk powder, and flavourings, means the whole product must be classified as UPF according to the NOVA criteria.
