WHAT KIND OF SUGAR DO YOU USE?
We use Organic Cane Sugar, which is less refined than white sugar. It is light brown in color, retaining more minerals and vitamins, and doesn't spike blood sugar as quickly.
WHAT KIND OF FLOUR BLEND DO YOU USE?
We make our own flour blend using Rice Flour, Almond Meal, and Tapioca Starch.
WHAT DO YOU USE TO REPLACE EGGS?
We use Organic Flax Seeds as our binder. We call it a flax “egg”. By mixing ground flax seeds with purified water, we mimic the texture of an egg!
1 flax egg = 1 tbsp ground flax meal + 3 tbsp water
WHAT DO YOU USE TO REPLACE BUTTER?
We use Organic Coconut Oil, which contains medium-chain triglycerides. These healthy fats are efficiently broken down by the liver, providing energy instead of being stored as fat.
ARE YOUR PRODUCTS NON-GMO?
Yes! Our cookies are Non-GMO Verified. We don’t use any genetically modified ingredients in our products.
ARE YOUR COOKIES ORGANIC?
Our Cookie Bites are about 93% Organic. We strive to make our product 100% organic in the near future.
WHY ARE YOUR COOKIES HIGH IN FAT?
We use a comparable amount of fat to most other cookie companies, but the difference is that we use coconut oil instead of butter or palm oil blends. Coconut oil contains medium-chain triglycerides, which are broken down differently by the body, providing us with energy rather than being stored as fat. We need fat for fuel!
DO YOU USE XANTHAN GUM?
No! We use a small amount of guar bean gum instead, which is derived from a natural food source, rather than bacterial fermentation.
ARE THERE ANY SOY PRODUCTS IN YOUR COOKIES?
Nope! We do not use any soy in our cookies.
ARE YOUR COOKIES PALEO?
Nope! Our cookies are not paleo.
ARE YOUR COOKIES NUT-FREE?
Nope! Almond meal is present in most flavors.
WHERE ARE YOUR COOKIES MADE?
All of our products are made at our Cookie Factory in Las Vegas, NV.
WHY DO YOU USE SUNFLOWER OIL?
We use less than 1% Organic Sunflower Oil in our formulas because it contains a high amount of Vitamin E, which acts as a natural antioxidant.
