No — Chocolate truffles is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredients consist only of basic culinary ingredients (chocolate from cocoa mass, cane sugar, cocoa butter, vanilla powder; almond paste; coconut oil; salted caramel made from cane sugar; water; sea salt; cocoa powder). There are no additives, industrial sweeteners/syrups, or emulsifiers/flavorings listed, so under NOVA these are not ultra-processed.
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.
