Yes — Cacao & Cashew Bar is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday.
This bar is ultra-processed because it contains chicory fibre, an extracted and isolated fibre ingredient, and soya crunchies made from isolated soy protein. These industrially processed ingredients go beyond basic culinary processing. The brown rice syrup and date syrup are traditional sweeteners and do not independently make the product ultra-processed, while the seeds, nuts, fruit, grains, cacao, salt, and sunflower oil are basic ingredients.
Other crisps, snacks & nuts Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Cacao & Cashew Bar by Perkier is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This bar is ultra-processed because it contains chicory fibre, an extracted and isolated fibre ingredient, and soya crunchies made from isolated soy protein. These industrially processed ingredients go beyond basic culinary processing. The brown rice syrup and date syrup are traditional sweeteners and do not independently make the product ultra-processed, while the seeds, nuts, fruit, grains, cacao, salt, and sunflower oil are basic 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.
