At Stubb's®, ingredients are declared on the product label. Pure, single ingredient spices and herbs do not contain an ingredient statement. The only ingredient present is the original spice or herb to which nothing else has been added. We encourage you to read the ingredient statement on your package at the time of purchase to ensure accurate, up to date information as product formulas may change. All priority allergens, sulphites (>10 ppm) and gluten sources will be clearly identified if they are present in the product.

We do have dairy, egg, soy, wheat, mustard, sesame, sulphites, fish, crustaceans, shellfish wheat and other sources of gluten ingredients in our facility. Please be assured we follow good manufacturing practices in our facilities. Our employees are trained in the importance of correct labelling and the necessity of performing thorough equipment wash-downs to eliminate cross-contact of ingredients.

"Gluten and gluten products, when present, will always be declared on the product label by the common name of the gluten source such as “barley”, “wheat”, “rye”, “oats” or “triticale”.

It is important that you read the ingredient statement on your package at the time of purchase to ensure accurate, up-to-date information, as product formulas may change. If any product has a Gluten-Free claim, the product and the manufacturing line has been validated Gluten-Free.
