Why is Ppc petit pot de creme cafe classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is rated NOVA 4 because its formulation includes several industrial ingredients such as dehydrated glucose syrup, modified tapioca starch, a natural coffee aroma that contains caramel colour (E150a), and sodium hydroxide as an acidity regulator, all of which are typical of ultra‑processed foods.

How does the sugar and salt content in this coffee cream affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 16 g of sugar per 100 g, the dessert delivers a high amount of quickly absorbable carbohydrates that can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making it unsuitable for strict diabetic control; the salt level of 0.19 g per 100 g is relatively low, so it is less of a concern for hypertension but should still be considered within the context of overall daily salt intake.

Is the egg ingredient in this product a concern for people with egg allergy?

Yes, the dessert contains whole eggs, extra‑fresh egg yolks and egg yolk powder, so it is not safe for individuals who are allergic to egg proteins and must be avoided by anyone with an egg allergy.
