Allergen program

Signature Wheat Flours

• Our Signature Flours are All-Purpose Flour, Bread Flour, Self-Rising Flour, Whole Wheat Flour, White Whole Wheat Flour, Sprouted Wheat Flour, and their organic versions.
• Apart from wheat, no U.S. top 8 allergens are added to our Signature Flours. Our Signature Flours packaged in paper bags are produced in a facility where wheat is the only allergen in production. All our flours are Non-GMO, are never bleached or bromated, don’t have vitamin and mineral enrichments added to them, and have no artificial preservatives added.
• Resealable Packaged Signature Wheat Flours: Unlike other sizes of our Signature Flours, those with resealable flour pouches are produced on equipment that also processes eggs, milk, soy, almonds, and coconut.

Certified Gluten-Free

• Our certified gluten-free products maintain the "Certified Gluten-Free" badge on the front of packaging. These products are certified by the Gluten-Free Certification Organization (a program of the Gluten Intolerance Group), which currently offers the most stringent threshold for testing certification available to us. To meet GFCO’s requirements, products must be tested as gluten-free to less than 10ppm. By using GFCO certification, we exceed the FDA’s standard for gluten-free, which is set to less than 20ppm.
• To display the Certified Gluten-Free badge on our packaging, our manufacturing facilities go through the following quality controls to ensure our products meet the Gluten-Free standard:
  • Clean-Out Testing – This test validates that the production lines are adequately cleaned after each production run to remove any trace gluten material. While clean-outs remove other allergens as well, we specifically test for gluten.
    • Sampled every clean out by using GFCO approved sampling kit OR
    • Every 6 months if certifying clean out process (this requires consecutive tests with no gluten results after first five product changeovers)
  • Surveillance Audit – Once per year, our production facilities must undergo a surveillance audit to prove they’re following correct operating procedures for all clean-outs, production runs, and testing.
  • Ingredient Testing – Raw ingredients which have greater likelihood for cross-contact in the supply chain are additionally tested based on their risk level. Raw ingredients which pose the highest risk, such as oats, are tested every shipment prior to being run through production lines.
  • Finished Product Testing – Finished products are tested for gluten at a rate determined by their ingredients and past testing results of the production facility. This can result in testing as frequent as 3x per production run to once per quarter, with the latter resulting from consecutive negative gluten testing results.
  • Proficiency Testing – The labs which perform our gluten testing must periodically undergo proficiency testing with the use of independent samples to guarantee the accuracy of their work.
• Most certified gluten-free products don’t contain any allergen ingredients. An example of limited exceptions include our Gluten-Free Single Serve mixes, some of which contain either soy or milk.
• Many certified gluten-free products share production equipment with some allergens, including eggs, milk, soy, coconut, and wheat. Almond Flour, Coconut Flour, and Paleo Flour are produced separately.

  Produced on equipment that also processes eggs, milk, soy, coconut, and wheat.

Our cross-contact prevention measures focus on the U.S. top 8 allergens, but we understand that some customers may wish to avoid other unmentioned ingredients. While we’re currently unable to answer broad questions regarding other ingredients (e.g., ‘Do any of your products share equipment with mustard?’) or identify other ingredients which could share production equipment with our certified gluten-free products, we do our best to answer ingredient questions about individual products when asked. Please feel encouraged to Contact Us with questions.

*Because we don’t currently test the products themselves for the presence of allergens (excepting gluten in our certified gluten-free line), we’re simply unable to offer a 100% guarantee against the possibility of contact outside of production. The safety of our customers is a top priority for our team, and we always recommend speaking to a doctor or dietician whenever a customer has concerns about a product being right for them.
