Yes — Chocolate Biscuits is ultra-processed.
Ultra-processed, best enjoyed occasionally rather than every day.
This is a chocolate biscuit product and is ultra-processed. The contributing ingredients include fully hydrogenated palm kernel oil, palm kernel oil, and fully hydrogenated palm oil, which are industrially refined and hydrogenated fats; shortening, a highly processed fat; malt extract, an industrially processed extract; emulsifiers (soy lecithin/e322 and polyglycerol polyricinoleate/e476), which are industrial additives; and vanilla flavour and artificial vanilla flavour, which are added flavourings. These industrial formulations and additives meet the criteria for ultra-processing. Sodium bicarbonate is a basic raising agent and is not a concern by itself.

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.
