Not a great choice for everyday.

This is ultra-processed because it contains emulsifier (lecithins) and flavourings, which are industrial additives associated with ultra-processed formulations. The product also uses a formulated rice powder blend containing dried rice syrup, rice starch, and rice flour, alongside isolated inulin and shea oil. Sugar, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, and sea salt are not themselves the reason for the UPF classification.
