Nutrition Facts labels
FDA-format Nutrition Facts labels from your recipe
For cottage-food bakers and small food makers. Send your recipe and get back a print-ready Nutrition Facts panel, calculated from USDA nutrient data with the FDA rounding rules applied.
A sample
This is a real build, not a mock-up. The panel, the ingredient statement and the allergen line all come out of the same calculation from the recipe.
Every number is derived: amounts rounded by the rules in 21 CFR 101.9, percent Daily Values from the 2016 values, serving count from the net weight.

Size and packs
The Nutrition Facts panel comes as its own back sticker, at least 2.5 × 4.8 in — 3 × 5 in is a good stock size. Your front label stays as it is.
Single pieces and 2-packs are both supported. For 3-piece packs, message me first: at that size FDA requires a two-column panel showing both per-serving and per-package amounts, which is a different job.
What I need from you
- Your recipe, with every ingredient in gram weights.
- The finished batch weight, and how many pieces it makes.
- Your serving size, and the net weight of one package.
- Photos of the Nutrition Facts panel and ingredient list for anything store-bought — chocolate chips, dried fruit, flour blends.
- What the product is packaged in, and the dimensions of the front panel.
- If you sell under California’s cottage food rules: your business name, city, ZIP, permit number and county.
- Any claims you plan to put on the label, such as “high fiber”.
Questions
Do I need a Nutrition Facts panel?
Often not. Under 21 CFR 101.9(j)(1)(i), a small business selling directly to consumers is generally exempt — but only while the label carries no nutrient content or health claims. The moment you add one, the exemption goes and the panel becomes required. Many makers add a panel anyway because shops and markets ask for it.
Do I need a lab analysis?
Not for this. The numbers are calculated from USDA FoodData Central entries for your ingredients, scaled to your recipe and your finished batch weight, with the FDA rounding rules in 21 CFR 101.9 applied. That is a recognised way to derive a panel. A lab assay measures your actual product instead, and it is the better evidence if a buyer or an inspector asks for one.
Is this right for my state’s cottage food law?
The panel follows the federal FDA format. State cottage food rules sit on top of that and differ — California wants the words “Made in a Home Kitchen” in 12-point type on the front panel and your permit number and county on the label; other states ask for different things. Tell me your state and I will point out what the label text needs. I’m not a lab and this isn’t legal advice; your local environmental health department has the final say.
Will you design my whole label?
No. You get the Nutrition Facts panel as its own print-ready file, plus the ingredient statement and allergen line as text you can paste into your existing artwork. Your front label stays as it is. If you want the whole label designed, a graphic designer is the right person — send them these files.
Is my recipe kept private?
Yes. Recipes are processed on a machine I run myself, never sent to a third-party service, and never used to train anything. I keep your files only as long as the order needs, and I delete them on request.
