Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Deluxe custard West Country Cream is ultra-processed.

The product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains several ultra-processed ingredients and additives: skimmed milk powder (pre-identified UPF ingredient), modified starches (industrially processed thickeners/stabilizers), sustainable palm oil (highly refined oil), inulin (isolated fiber additive), and natural flavouring (industrial flavoring). These go beyond basic culinary ingredients, so under NOVA this custard is an ultra-processed food.
