Ingredients with an unresolved source
Niacin is normally synthesized, but the manufacturing source is not confirmed by this ingredient list.
Riboflavin can be produced by fermentation or other processes; the manufacturing source is not confirmed here.
The source or production method of vegetable shortening can vary, so it is not always vegan.
Mono- and diglycerides can be made from plant or animal fats.
The source or production method of E435 can vary, so it is not always vegan.
The exact processing ingredient and its source are not listed.
Unspecified flavourings may contain carriers or ingredients of animal origin.
We could not identify this ingredient reliably. Check the label spelling; this is a recognition gap, not evidence of animal origin.
The source or production method of E481 can vary, so it is not always vegan.
Food enzymes can be microbial, plant-derived, or animal-derived unless their source is stated.

Nutri-Score is the grade reported in the source, not a score calculated or certified by us. NOVA describes processing. The Veganory indicator is a separate estimate; it does not determine whether a product is vegan.

How our indicator is calculated
When available, Nutri-Score A–E maps to 92, 74, 55, 34 or 16 points. With NOVA present, we combine 80% of those points with 20% of the processing indicator (100, 82, 52 or 16 for groups 1–4). Without NOVA we use the nutrition points alone. Without a usable Nutri-Score, we do not rate the product. This is a simplified comparison aid, not a validated health assessment.

Questions about this product
Is this answer valid for every Dierberg's Markets, Inc. product?
No. This page covers Dierberg's Markets LEMON CREME HALF CAKE, LEMON, barcode 023933685694. Other flavours, package versions or recipes sold in different countries may differ. Match the barcode and ingredient list on your package.
What still needs to be confirmed?
The source of niacin, riboflavin, vegetable shortening, mono- and diglycerides, E435, unspecified processing aid, flavourings, mono- and biglycerides, E481, enzymes needs clarification. Check the current package for a vegan certification or ask the manufacturer about these exact ingredients. A confidence label is not a certification.
Is the nutrition rating the same as the vegan result?
No. Vegan status concerns ingredient origin. Nutri-Score describes a nutrition profile, NOVA describes processing, and the Veganory score is our own combination of available indicators. A vegan result does not mean a food is nutritionally balanced.
