Product Insights
Levadura en sobres is a packet of chemical leavening agent marketed by Royal and sold at Mercadona, intended for use in pastries and baked goods. The product belongs to the leavening agent dietary family, is labeled gluten-free and vegan, but it falls into NOVA group 4 as an ultra-processed additive and contains sodium bicarbonate (E-500 ii), disodium diphosphate (E-450 i), monocalcium phosphate (E-341 i) and rice flour, with traces of milk. While it offers a convenient gluten-free way to boost rise in dough, its high sodium contribution and ultra-processed nature may be unsuitable for low-sodium or whole-food dietary approaches, and a Nutri-Score is not assigned to this type of product.
