Ingredient Decoder
High Risk Additives
High Fructose Corn Syrup
An industrial liquid sweetener made from corn starch. It is chemically different from table sugar and is strongly linked to the obesity epidemic, fatty liver disease, and insulin resistance.
Corn Syrup
A liquid sweetener consisting of essentially pure glucose. It causes rapid spikes in blood sugar levels, contributing to energy crashes and long-term metabolic issues.
Sodium Benzoate
A preservative used in acidic foods like soda and pickles. When mixed with Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), it can form Benzene, a known human carcinogen.
Sulfur Dioxide
Used to bleach flour and preserve dried fruits. It destroys Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) in foods and poses significant risks to those with asthma.
Moderate Caution
Palm Oil
A vegetable fat high in saturated fatty acids. Its massive production is a primary driver of deforestation, endangering species like orangutans. Refined palm oil may also contain harmful contaminants.
Dextrose
A simple sugar chemically identical to glucose. It absorbs instantly into the bloodstream, causing rapid energy spikes and crashes. Often used as a filler.
Sodium Propionate
A mold inhibitor used in bakery products. Linked to metabolic disruption and insulin resistance in recent mouse studies.
Enriched Flour
Refined flour with synthetic vitamins added back in. Acts like pure sugar in the body, spiking insulin.

Health Integrity Analysis
Is Mini Apple Pies truly good for you, or is it just clever marketing? We analyzed the nutritional density, ingredient safety, and processing levels using the CakeID Algorithm. With a calculated health score of 0/100, here is the deep dive into what you are actually eating.
⚠️ Additive Watch: Critical Flags
The ingredient list reveals the presence of High Fructose Corn Syrup. An industrial liquid sweetener made from corn starch. It is chemically different from table sugar and is strongly linked to the obesity epidemic, fatty liver disease, and insulin resistance. For health-conscious consumers, this is a significant red flag that lowered the product's overall score.
The Sugar Reality Check
This product contains 28g of sugar per 100g. To put that into perspective, that's equivalent to eating roughly 7 sugar cubes directly. While it might taste great, such a high glycemic load can lead to rapid insulin spikes followed by energy crashes.
Final Verdict
Taking into account the macro-nutrient balance, additive risks, and caloric density, Mini Apple Pies achieves a CakeID Score of 0/100.
