Why is Barquettes à la fraise classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The snack is made from a blend of glucose‑fructose syrup, refined sugar, wheat flour, eggs and strawberry puree, plus processed ingredients such as pectin (E440) as a gelling agent and citric acid (E330) as an acidity regulator; the extensive use of refined sweeteners and food‑industry additives places it in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category.

How does the sugar content in this product affect a diabetic diet?

With 58 g of sugars per 100 g, the barquettes provide a very high sugar load that can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making them unsuitable for people managing diabetes or trying to limit simple carbohydrate intake.

Is Barquettes à la fraise suitable for a gluten‑free or vegan diet?

No. The product contains wheat flour and wheat starch, which provide gluten, and it also includes eggs, so it does not meet the requirements for either a gluten‑free or a vegan diet.
