Quickly Cottage adds all of this automatically.

Do I need to list sub-ingredients from a packaged mix on my Alaska cottage food label?

Yes. If you use a packaged ingredient like a Betty Crocker cake mix or Ghirardelli chocolate, you must list its sub-ingredients on your label, in the correct order. This is an FDA labeling rule that applies in Alaska and every other state. Quickly Cottage expands these automatically from our branded ingredient database.

Can I use Canva or Word to make my Alaska cottage food label?

You can design the visual layout in Canva or Word, but neither can auto-generate your ingredient list, detect allergens, or add Alaska's required disclosure statement. You'd need to compile all of that manually. Quickly Cottage handles it automatically for Alaska and all 50 states.
