How does this mix deliver rich flavor without dairy?

How easy is it to prepare and how many servings will I get?

Are there allergen or handling considerations I should know?

While the product itself is vegan and does not contain milk, it is produced in a facility that also handles milk, soy, and sulfites, so there is potential for cross-contact. The manufacturer follows Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) to minimize this risk, but anyone with severe allergies should consider that information before consuming.

• Vegan-friendly recipe, but cross-contact risk exists
• Facility processes milk, soy, and sulfites—GMPs applied
• Labeling reflects kosher and organic certifications
• Store in a cool, dry place to preserve flavor
