How is Original Sunshine gluten-free?
Original Sunshine products are made using gluten-free wheat starch. Gluten-free wheat starch is derived from wheat flour that has undergone a specialized washing and refining process designed to remove gluten proteins while retaining the functional properties of the starch. The resulting ingredient is tested to ensure it meets the FDA’s regulatory definition of gluten-free, which requires that finished products contain less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten.
Are Original Sunshine products appropriate for individuals with celiac disease?
Original Sunshine products are formulated and tested to meet the FDA’s definition of gluten-free (less than 20 ppm of gluten). Finished products are produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility and undergo routine testing to verify compliance with gluten-free standards. In addition, Original Sunshine products are certified gluten-free by SCS Global Services, which provides third-party verification of gluten-free claims.
*Individuals with celiac disease or other medical conditions should consult their healthcare provider regarding dietary choices.
Why Our Products Are Non-GMO:
Modern farming often depends on intensive chemical inputs and large-scale monocropping, practices that can degrade soil health and reduce biodiversity over time. By using only non-GMO ingredients, we support cleaner farming methods that protect both the environment and the quality of the food we make. Our ingredients are free from bleaches, dyes, bromation, “enrichment” and chemical additives.
What is Regenerative Farming?
Regenerative farming focuses on restoring soil health and biodiversity, shifting away from large-scale monoculture and heavy use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides. These practices yield more nutritionally dense food and create farmland that can thrive sustainably for generations. We prioritize regenerative ingredients wherever possible.
Are there any allergens in your products?
Yes, our product contains wheat and sesame (or made in a facility where there is sesame present). Consumers with food allergies should carefully review ingredient and allergen statements prior to consumption.

More about Gluten-Free wheat starch:
Wheat starch is a carbohydrate component of the wheat kernel. Through a controlled washing and separation process, gluten proteins are reduced to levels that allow the final product to meet the FDA’s gluten-free standard of less than 20 ppm gluten. Finished products are tested to verify compliance with gluten-free requirements.
Why do Original Sunshine products need to be kept frozen?
