Yes — Dairy Milk Marvellous Creations Jelly Popping Candy is ultra-processed.
The product is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial ingredients and additives, including glucose syrup (an industrially processed sugar), modified starch, emulsifiers (E442, E476, lecithins), glazing agents (gum arabic, carnauba wax), and unspecified flavourings. These go beyond basic culinary ingredients and place the product in the NOVA ultra-processed category.
