Ingredients with an unresolved source

unspecified oil

The oil source is not identified as plant-derived.

E570

The source or production method of E570 can vary, so it is not always vegan.

natural flavours

Natural flavours can come from plant or animal sources.

Neapolitan wafer

This ingredient name is in the source dictionary, but it is not yet covered by a verified assessment. This is not evidence of animal origin.

unspecified processing aid

The exact processing ingredient and its source are not listed.

Acidity regulator

This ingredient name is in the source dictionary, but it is not yet covered by a verified assessment. This is not evidence of animal origin.

mono- and diglycerides

Mono- and diglycerides can be made from plant or animal fats.

caramel

Plain ‘caramel’ is ambiguous: it may mean vegan caramel colour or a dairy-containing caramel preparation. Look for ‘caramel colour’, E150, or dairy sub-ingredients.

Additional evidence

vegan label

The source data identifies this product as vegan.

vegetarian label

The source data identifies this product as vegetarian, which does not by itself confirm vegan status.

Nutrition + processing

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.

Source values per 100 g or 100 ml, as supplied by the record. Confirm the basis on the package; these are not per-serving values.

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 Trader Joe’s product?

No. This page covers Trader Joe’s Hold The Dairy! Mini Frozen Dessert Cones Salted Caramel, barcode 00756075. 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 unspecified oil, E570, natural flavours, Neapolitan wafer, unspecified processing aid, Acidity regulator, mono- and diglycerides, caramel 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.

Does “may contain” make it non-vegan?

A precautionary trace statement describes possible cross-contact, not an ingredient intentionally included in the recipe. We keep it separate from the recipe assessment. This distinction does not establish allergy safety.

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.

What if my label is different?
