About CHOCOLATE MINI CUPCAKES, CHOCOLATE
This Market Pantry chocolate mini cupcake is sold at Target stores under the value-tier private label, in the Cakes, Cupcakes, Snack Cakes category. Like other entries in this lineup, it is a multi-component product consisting of a chocolate cake, a flavored icing, and decorative sprinkles.
The cake component uses enriched bleached wheat flour (note: 'enriched' precedes 'bleached' in this variant, a minor label ordering variation), eggs, vegetable oil (canola and soybean), water, regular (not alkalized) cocoa powder, modified corn starch, whey, and the standard leavening blend. DATEM and artificial flavor are also present. The frosting is a non-hydrogenated vegetable oil shortening (canola, palm, modified palm, palm kernel) with glucose, water, alkali-processed cocoa (providing darker color than natural cocoa), skim milk powder, and butter. Artificial flavor in the frosting. The sprinkles use rice flour as a structural base and contain titanium dioxide as a white colorant — a food additive that has faced scrutiny in the EU (banned as a food additive in France since 2020 and EU-wide in 2022), though it remains permitted by the FDA. Also present: carrageenan, cellulose gum, gum arabic, and synthetic dyes Red 40, Yellow 6, and Red 3.
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. No shellac listed in sprinkles, making this variant potentially more suitable for vegans among the Market Pantry mini cupcake range — though palm oil sourcing and artificial flavors remain considerations. Titanium dioxide in sprinkles is an EU-flagged additive.
