Kroger, CHOCOLATE CUPCAKE

About CHOCOLATE CUPCAKE

Kroger Chocolate Cupcake is an in-store bakery cupcake from The Kroger Co.'s Kroger brand, sold in the Cakes, Cupcakes and Snack Cakes category. Available at Kroger, Harris Teeter, Ralph's, Fred Meyer, and King Soopers bakery departments, this is a freshly decorated chocolate sponge cupcake with white icing and optional colored decorative icing elements using a full spectrum of synthetic FD&C colorants.

The chocolate cake component uses sugar, bleached enriched wheat flour, water, soybean oil, eggs and egg whites, alkali-processed cocoa, and modified corn starch, with emulsifiers sorbitan monostearate, mono- and diglycerides, polysorbate 60, sodium stearoyl lactylate, and soy lecithin. The white icing uses a vegetable shortening base of interesterified soybean oil, soybean oil, and hydrogenated cottonseed oil, with corn syrup, water, titanium dioxide for color, and potassium sorbate as preservative. The colored decorative icing adds TBHQ-containing palm oil shortening, high fructose corn syrup, glycerin, gum arabic, phosphoric acid, sodium benzoate, and a comprehensive range of synthetic colorants: Blue 1, Blue 1 Lake, Yellow 5, Yellow 5 Lake, Yellow 6, Yellow 6 Lake, Red 40, Red 40 Lake, Red 3, and Blue 2 Lake.
