Winston-Salem, N.C., March 9th, 2017 – Salem Baking Company has earned Gluten-Free Certification from the Gluten Intolerance Group for all six of its gluten-free cookie flavors, which will be showcased at booth #5735 at Expo West.
This certification requires adherence to stringent quality control measures, including regular on-site inspections and monitoring of test results. The company has a thorough cleaning and testing program for its baking equipment and finished product toensure that they always meet the organization's standard of less than 10 parts per million of gluten.
“Gluten-free is a fast-growing category for us and for the specialty food market as a whole,” said Scott Livengood, president and CEO of Salem Baking Company. “We know that this new certification will show current customers that their trust in our products is well-founded, as well as attract new customers seeking snacks they can enjoy with confidence.”
Moravian Cookies are known for being thin, crisp and packed with flavor to allow the premium ingredients to shine. Gluten-free flavors include Salted Caramel, Toasted Coconut, and Double Chocolate. Each flavor is baked using only the finest, most essential ingredients, with no preservatives, artificial colors, or artificial flavors. Each cookie contains 15 calories or less. Each 5-ounce boxes has an SRP of $5.99.
Salem Baking Company also offers Gluten Free Thin & Crispy Cookies (SRP $5.99) in Double Chocolate Chip, Caramel Chocolate Chip and White Chocolate Macadamia.
All of Salem Baking Company’s cookies, including gluten-free and non gluten-free flavors, are now certified by OK Kosher, a global leader in Kosher certification since 1935.
New cookie packaging debuting this spring will feature both the Certified Gluten-Free logo and the Kosher certified logo.
