Rafhan Vanilla Custard Powder

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Rafhan Vanilla Custard Powder scores 5/100 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.

Rafhan Vanilla Custard Powder lists 5 ingredients, starting with Maize Starch, Salt, Artificial Vanilla Flavour, Food Yellow 4 (Tartrazine) and Food Yellow 3 (Sunset Yellow). Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 5/100 Rafhan Vanilla Custard Powder 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 at 100/100.
