No — Butter croissant is not ultra-processed.
The croissant contains basic culinary ingredients (wheat flour, butter, water, sugar, yeast, egg, salt) and a flour treatment agent (ascorbic acid) and enzymes, which are permitted minor processing aids under NOVA and do not in themselves make a food ultra-processed. There are no industrial sweeteners, flavourings, emulsifiers, or other cosmetic additives present.

No — Butter croissant by Waitrose is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The croissant contains basic culinary ingredients (wheat flour, butter, water, sugar, yeast, egg, salt) and a flour treatment agent (ascorbic acid) and enzymes, which are permitted minor processing aids under NOVA and do not in themselves make a food ultra-processed. There are no industrial sweeteners, flavourings, emulsifiers, or other cosmetic additives present.
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
