Wilton Metallic Mix Sprinkles

Breakdown

8 ingredients to avoid

Wilton Metallic Mix Sprinkles 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.

Wilton Metallic Mix Sprinkles lists 18 ingredients, starting with Sugar, Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil, Mica-based Pearlescent Pigment [color], Confectioner's Glaze and Gum Arabic. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Wilton Metallic Mix Sprinkles 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.
