Yes — Glazed Biscuits is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday eating.
This appears to be glazed biscuits made with wheat and rice flour, egg, sugar, and vegetable oils. It is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial formulations and additives: glucose syrup, potassium sorbate preservative, natural flavouring, artificial flavouring, glazing agent E903, sorbitol, palm oil, maltodextrin, and modified corn starch. These ingredients are characteristic of industrial processing; palm oil is a highly refined oil, while the syrups, flavourings, preservative, glazing agent, sweetener, maltodextrin, and modified starch are UPF ingredients. The raising agents and colour are not the primary reasons for 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.
