Ornament Cookies are decorated confectionery snacks designed for special occasions or gifts, offering a sweet and festive treat.
The high content of added sugars (16g) and artificial flavors and colors suggests that these cookies are not a healthful option. The ingredients list includes processed additives like artificial flavor and colorants (FD&C dyes), as well as preservatives such as potassium sorbate and shellac, indicating a highly processed product. While they may be appealing for their visual appeal and convenience, they contribute to excessive sugar intake, potentially leading to negative health impacts like increased risk of chronic diseases.
These cookies fall under ultra-processed foods due to their pre-made state, reliance on artificial additives, and lack of natural components. They are formulated for convenience but offer limited nutritional value and may pose risks related to added sugars and synthetic ingredients.
Consider choosing whole grain cookies, dark chocolate with minimal added sugars, or homemade treats using natural ingredients as healthier alternatives. These options provide more fiber, fewer sugars, and natural benefits compared to Ornament Cookies.
