About CHOCOLATE MINI CUPCAKES, CHOCOLATE
This Market Pantry chocolate mini cupcake is a standard small-format baked dessert sold under Target's value-tier private label in the Cakes, Cupcakes, Snack Cakes category. It features the characteristic three-layer structure of many Market Pantry mini cupcakes: a chocolate cake base, a cocoa frosting, and decorated sprinkles.
The cake follows the standard Market Pantry formula: sugar, bleached enriched wheat flour, eggs, canola and soybean oil, water, regular cocoa powder (not alkalized in the cake — a distinction from several related variants), modified corn starch, whey, multi-agent leavening, soy lecithin, wheat gluten, DATEM, and artificial flavor. The frosting uses a non-hydrogenated vegetable oil shortening (canola, palm, modified palm, palm kernel), glucose syrup, water, alkali-processed cocoa powder, skim milk powder, butter, and artificial flavor. The sprinkles in this variant notably list partially hydrogenated cottonseed and/or soybean oils alongside palm kernel oil — a legacy trans-fat formulation that predates the FDA's 2018 phase-out of partially hydrogenated oils. This flags the USDA entry as a legacy formulation. Also in the sprinkles: titanium dioxide (color), Yellow 5, Red 3, Yellow 6, Blue 1, soy lecithin, polysorbate 60, gum arabic, cellulose gum, carrageenan.
Nutritionally: 427 calories per 100 grams, 20 g fat, 57.33 g carbohydrates, 2.67 g protein, 1.3 g fiber. Contains wheat, soy, milk, and eggs. Legacy trans-fat ingredient (partially hydrogenated oils) in sprinkles is the most significant flag. Titanium dioxide also present. Not suitable for wheat, soy, milk, or egg allergies.
