We are no longer classifying ourselves as a tree nut-free bakery because we DO use coconut in some of our baked goods and the FDA requires any product that uses coconut be classified as containing tree nuts.   The FDA labels coconut as a tree nut (even though we know that scientifically coconut is a drupe and would be considered a seed, it can be confusing as “nut” is in its name, so we’ll just follow what the FDA tells us to do).    We do NOT use any other tree nut (pecans, almonds, cashews, pistachios, hazelnuts, etc) in our baking.    The ONLY tree nut we use in our bakery is coconut. No other tree nut comes in contact with our bakery equipment, only coconut.   Not all of our products contain coconut so we will specifically list “CONTAINS: COCONUT” on the food label for all products that do contain it.
