Yes — White tiger bloomer is ultra-processed.
Not ideal for everyday eating because it contains several industrial additives.
This bread is classified as ultra-processed because it contains dextrose, raising agents including sodium carbonates, and the preservative calcium propionate, all identified as UPF ingredients. It also contains malted barley, an industrially processed extract used as a flavor enhancer, and flour treatment agent L-cysteine, an extracted or synthesized processing additive. The fortified wheat flour, rapeseed oil, yeast, sourdough, salt, rice flour, citric acid, calcium sulphate, ammonium carbonates, and ascorbic acid do not independently determine the classification.

Yes — White tiger bloomer by Black Sheep Craft Bakery is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This bread is classified as ultra-processed because it contains dextrose, raising agents including sodium carbonates, and the preservative calcium propionate, all identified as UPF ingredients. It also contains malted barley, an industrially processed extract used as a flavor enhancer, and flour treatment agent L-cysteine, an extracted or synthesized processing additive. The fortified wheat flour, rapeseed oil, yeast, sourdough, salt, rice flour, citric acid, calcium sulphate, ammonium carbonates, and ascorbic acid do not independently determine the classification.
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.
