Ultra-processed food: what is really in it
Processing and additives: Starbucks Raspberry & Coconut Cake Cube
Starbucks Raspberry & Coconut Cake Cube is assembled from 25 separately manufactured components. Reading the ingredient list closely, it contains acidity regulators, gelling agents, colours, emulsifiers, acids, preservatives and stabilisers. These are not there to add nutritional value. They make industrial production and distribution possible.
Acidity regulators
Hold the ph steady so flavour and shelf life stay consistent.
Gelling agents
Set a liquid into a gel so fillings and glazes hold their shape.
Colours
Restore or standardise appearance after processing.
Emulsifiers
Keep fat and water mixed so the texture stays even and does not separate.
Acids
Sharpen flavour and lower the ph so the product keeps longer.
Preservatives
Slow the growth of moulds and yeasts so the product keeps longer.
Stabilisers
Stop the mixture separating or settling over its shelf life.

Boone counts every distinct named ingredient on the Starbucks published component lists, including sub-ingredients, and removes duplicates, so milk appearing in three components counts once. Additive class names are dropped and the named substance kept, so "stabiliser: guar gum" counts guar gum once. Raw covers whole foods and basic kitchen staples such as water, coffee, milk, sugar and salt. Manufactured covers substances that only exist as an output of industrial processing. Figures are for the standard build; syrups, cold foams, whipped cream and drizzles added to order are not included. Retrieved 28 August 2026.
