FAQs

We’ve got answers to some of your most asked questions:

Are Supernatural products safe for people with food allergies?

All Supernatural products are free from Top-9 food allergens by ingredient. However, with the exception of our 25LB cases*, all products are packaged in non-dedicated facilities, where allergens can be present. These partners follow strict protocols for allergen control in their facilities and on their lines (including swabbing), but we ask that you review the chart below to determine whether our products are truly right for you. If at all in doubt, reach out to us for more information.

Where are Supernatural products manufactured?

In 2017, 50% of Supernatural products were made in America. By 2022, over 90% of our products were made in America. And by the end of 2024, all Supernatural products will be made right here, with the sole exception of our organic coconut sugar, which is harvested in Indonesia.

Are Supernatural products vegan?

All Supernatural products are 100% vegan. 🦙 ❤️ 🐄 ❤️ 🐈

Will plant-based food colors add smells or flavors to my baking project?

After blending into batter, frosting, or other application, our plant-based colors are odorless and tasteless. But in raw form, they can smell and taste like their natural source (which could mean spicy, sweet, or vegetable-ish). Have no fear: Your cookies will taste like cookies, not carrots.

Is coconut sugar safe for people with food allergies?

Coconut sugar comes from nectar of the coconut blossom, which grows on coconut palms. This flower eventually becomes a coconut, and while rare, coconut allergies do exist. So if you are allergic to coconut, don’t eat coconut sugar.

Like our other products, our coconut sugar is free from the Top 9 allergens, however it is packaged in a facility that may be exposed to those things. So if you have a severe or life threatening allergy, play it safe!

Can I save my leftover and unused color?

If you’ve already hydrated your colors with water, you can store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. Color that’s still in powder form can be stored in a cool, dark place until the expiration date.

Are Supernatural products Certified Organic and non-GMO?

We prioritize the sourcing of organic, non-gmo, and responsibly and sustainably sourced ingredients in everything we make, including non-gmo cane sugar and RSPO Certified Palm Oil. Supernatural products rely very heavily on natural colors, and most FDA-certified natural colors are neither organic or non-gmo certified. For the most part, that means we can only pursue those certifications for certain products in our family, for now. As natural color science continues to advance, we hope this changes (and we’ll be their biggest customer ;).
