This is an ultra-processed cake product. The classification is driven by glucose-fructose syrup and glucose syrup, which are industrially processed sugar syrups; palm oil, a highly refined oil; potassium sorbate, used as a preservative; mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids, an emulsifier; xanthan gum, a stabilizer/thickener; and flavourings. These industrial formulations and additives are characteristic of ultra-processed foods. Other contributing additives include the listed colour cochineal and sodium metabisulfite preservative.

The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
