As noted in the release, the facility we work with is certified by the GFCO, so all products are tested to be less than 10 parts per million gluten (the FDA standard is less than 20 ppm) – and the mixes we’ve blended/packaged and tested have had no gluten. "Rather than blending and packaging the gluten-free mixes/flour here in Vermont, where we blend and package the rest of our mixes, we actually partner with a completely gluten- and allergen-free facility in the Midwest to ensure absolutely no possibility of cross-contamination with gluten. I look forward to checking out the new gluten-free mixes from King Arthur Flour soon! I was a bit concerned about how the gluten-free flours were produced in a gluten environment, but I received a very prompt response from the company. The baking mixes are so new, their website isn't even updated yet. I got an exciting press release about some new gluten-free baking mixes that are now available from King Arthur Flour.
