Yes — 4 Soft Serve Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Cones is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday.
This product is ultra-processed because it contains xanthan gum, an industrial stabiliser, and natural flavouring, an extracted flavour additive. These additives are characteristic of industrial formulations and are the contributing factors for the UPF classification. Anthocyanins are colouring compounds, while the milk, cream, sugar, blueberry puree, water, and salt are not the reasons for this 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.
