At Alter Eco, we prioritize sustainability, ethical sourcing, and transparency at every step. Recently, we’ve received questions about the gluten-free certification of our Burnt Caramel chocolate bar due to a labeling change. While wheat is now declared on the ingredient panel due to an updated glucose syrup source, rest assured—our bar remains certified gluten-free, meeting the highest safety standards.

We work closely with the Gluten-Free Food Program (GFFP) to ensure compliance, and our products exceed FDA gluten-free requirements. Your trust means everything to us, and we’re committed to keeping you informed
