Ingredients Matter

We are NOT a certified gluten-free facility.

This is a list of ingredients that the Free From Kitchen deems acceptable to use. While not all of these ingredients are safe for everyone, we strive to keep the toxic levels and allergenicity to a minimum. If you are allergic or highly sensitive to any of these ingredients, please know that our kitchen is not certified to be free of anything, including gluten. We do our best to avoid cross-contamination but we currently produce our goods in a shared kitchen.

All products may contain wheat, gluten, dairy, nuts, and other allergens not on our ingredients lists due to shared equipment.

Gluten-free flours that may be used include:

Almond flour
Brown rice flour
Buckwheat flour (this is NOT wheat)
Cassava flour
Coconut flour
Modified tapioca starch
Potato flour
Potato starch
Sweet rice flour

Non-dairy liquids that may be used:

All commercial alternative "milk" products include some sort of thickener or whitener. We strive to keep those ingredients to a minimum. 

Almond milk
Coconut milk
Oat milk

Binders and thickeners that may be used:

In a perfect world where we could all eat wheat; these binders would not be necessary. However, in order to provide the best textures for our products these ingredients are must. When at all possible, we default to psyllium husk, which is a natural fiber and thickener. Xanthan gum is used in small quantities, but both can cause problems for some people.

Psyllium husk
Xanthan gum
