Yes — Mini Croissants is ultra-processed.
The product is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial additives and refined ingredients, including palm oil (highly processed fat), mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids, polyglycerol esters of fatty acids (emulsifiers), sodium alginate (gelling agent), preservatives (calcium propionate, potassium sorbate), and artificial flavouring (vanillin). These additives and industrial formulations place it in the NOVA ultra-processed foods category.

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.
