Yes — Chocolate Ice Cream is ultra-processed.
Not ideal for everyday eating because industrial syrups and an emulsifier are included.
This is a chocolate ice cream containing glucose syrup and invert sugar syrup, both industrially processed sugars classified as ultra-processed ingredients. It also contains soya lecithin, an emulsifier, which is an extracted additive associated with ultra-processing. Carrageenan is a traditional gelling agent and does not contribute to the UPF classification; the dairy ingredients, sugar, cocoa, vanilla extract, and salt are otherwise basic or traditionally processed ingredients.
Other puddings & desserts Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Chocolate Ice Cream by Pots & Co is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This is a chocolate ice cream containing glucose syrup and invert sugar syrup, both industrially processed sugars classified as ultra-processed ingredients. It also contains soya lecithin, an emulsifier, which is an extracted additive associated with ultra-processing. Carrageenan is a traditional gelling agent and does not contribute to the UPF classification; the dairy ingredients, sugar, cocoa, vanilla extract, and salt are otherwise basic or traditionally processed ingredients.
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.
