Is Chocolate Gluten Free?

Chocolate is one of the most loved treats in the world. But if you live a gluten-free lifestyle, you might wonder: Is Chocolate Gluten Free?

The answer is not always simple.

In this blog, we’ll explore common questions about chocolate, gluten & how to choose the right products with confidence.

What Makes Chocolate Gluten Free?

Pure chocolate comes from cacao beans. Cacao is naturally Gluten Free.

The problem happens when chocolate is processed with additives or made in facilities that handle wheat. Ingredients like cookies, wafers, or barley malt can add gluten.

That’s why it’s important to always check the label & choose brands that clearly state they are gluten free.

How Do You Know If Chocolate Is Gluten Free?

  • A Certified Gluten-Free Seal
