If you’re a QA/QC Manager, Compliance Officer, or Food Safety lead, you don’t just evaluate products by appearance—you assess them by documentation, traceability, and risk mitigation. FoodGrid Clean-Label Sprinkles are designed to meet the high standards of food safety and regulatory compliance that modern manufacturing demands. From allergen control to full traceability and clean labeling, they help ensure your operations stay audit-ready and consumer-trusted.
Regulatory and Compliance Pressure Is Rising—And You Need Ingredients That Keep Up
The FDA’s FSMA regulations and increasing scrutiny from retailers and third-party audits (SQF, BRCGS, GFSI) mean QA teams must ensure every ingredient meets safety, labeling, and traceability requirements. According to Food Safety Magazine, traceability and clean-label compliance are now baseline expectations, not added benefits [1].
That’s where FoodGrid Clean-Label Sprinkles make a difference:
- Fully traceable, with documentation for every batch
- Top 9 allergen-free and produced in an allergen-controlled facility
- Free from synthetic colors and preservatives
- Kosher, Non-GMO, and Vegan certified
- Smart Snacks and EU additive-compliant
Critical Features for QA and Regulatory Officers
- Full Traceability and COA Documentation
Every lot shipped by FoodGrid is backed by Certificates of Analysis (COAs), batch tracking, and raw material transparency. Our supply chain is FSMA-compliant and supports rapid trace-back and recall protocols. - Allergen Control Built into Production
Our sprinkles are made in a facility that avoids the top 9 allergens: milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, soy, wheat, and sesame. Rigorous allergen swabbing, batch segregation, and cleaning verification are part of our documented QA process. - Clean-Label and Global Compliance
Our sprinkles meet U.S. FDA and USDA guidelines, and conform with EU standards around additive use and food dyes. We exclude artificial colors like Red 40 and Yellow 5, instead using natural colorants like turmeric and beetroot. - Thermal, pH, and Shelf Stability Testing
QA teams can rely on real performance data. We validate our products through thermal resistance testing (up to 375°F), pH stability (3.5–7.5), and 12-month ambient shelf-life testing. - Third-Party Verified Certifications
We maintain Non-GMO, Vegan, and Kosher certifications with renewals verified by accredited third-party agencies. We can supply audit-ready certification upon request.

Real-World Application: Clean-Label Reformulation Case Study
A national children’s snack manufacturer switched from artificial toppings to FoodGrid Clean-Label Sprinkles to satisfy retailer mandates and reduce allergen exposure risk. The QA team selected our sprinkles after a review of:
- Allergen control documentation
- Lot traceability and batch validation
- Stability performance in pH 4.0 dairy bases
- Audit support from FoodGrid’s QA liaison team
Result: The brand passed two third-party audits (SQF and GFSI) and maintained supply continuity during seasonal demand surges.
