Our turn around time for nutritional labeling is 15 business days. A representative sample must be used for theses analyses. The sample should be a composite of 12 randomly chosen sub-samples, each one from a different production case. About 500-1000g or 1-2 pounds of product is required for these tests. Please provide any special compositing instructions such as drained vs. undrained, dry vs. prepared mix, etc. *This analysis is performed by a 3rd party laboratory and is subject to a shipping and handling fee of $90.

Mock Nutritional Label

Serving Size Serving sizes are measured in cups or pieces as well as in grams and milligrams. The servings determine all other values listed on the label.

Calories and Carbohydrate Calories and carbohydrates are calculated from ash, fat, moisture, and protein.
