Creating a nutrition facts label has always been a difficult, time-consuming, and expensive process for food manufacturers. To create an accurate nutritional analysis on which to base your FDA-compliant nutrition facts panel, you had to rely on food labs, who could charge you thousands of dollars and even then it would take days or weeks to get your results back.

But what if we told you that you can bypass this whole process and create FDA-compliant nutrition facts panels in the comfort of your own office?

Food Label Maker allows anyone to analyze recipes, make quick edits and produce regulatory compliant labels within minutes, while saving days and hundreds of dollars on nutritionist fees. It is created by certified nutritionists, USDA approved databases for more than 10,000 ingredients, and customized labels as per regulatory local requirements. 

It doesn’t matter how many times you change or reformulate your recipe, you can always come back to your account and edit anything. It will provide you with an FDA-compliant label as long as the ingredients are in line with current regulations.
