Yes — Fruit Puree is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday, despite its mostly fruit-based composition.
This appears to be a fruit purée made primarily from apples, pears, and berries. It is classified as ultra-processed because black carrot extract is a pre-identified UPF ingredient: an extracted additive used for coloring or formulation. The fruit ingredients themselves are minimally processed, but the presence of this industrially extracted additive makes the product UPF under the specified criteria.

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.
