Baker's Corner Classic Yellow Cake Mix

Breakdown

7 ingredients to avoid

Baker's Corner Classic Yellow Cake Mix scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Baker's Corner Classic Yellow Cake Mix lists 24 ingredients, starting with Wheat Flour, Niacin, Reduced Iron, Thiamin Mononitrate and Riboflavin. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Baker's Corner Classic Yellow Cake Mix scores worse than most baking ingredients we have scored. A higher-scoring option in baking ingredients is King Arthur Baking Company Organic Unbleached All-Purpose Flour, 5 lb at 100/100.
