Yes — Breakfast Biscuits Soft Bakes Filled Choco Hazelnut by Belvita is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes several industrial additives and refined ingredients: modified starch, emulsifier (soya lecithins), bulking agent (maltitol), humectant (glycerol), dextrose, isomaltulose, and flavourings. These are characteristic of NOVA group 4 ultra-processed foods.
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.
