# Mariposa Baking Bear Claw -4pk | Artisan-Crafted Gluten-Free — TilliT proof check

> TilliT is an independent service that checks whether a public product claim — Organic, Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, Allergen-Free or Fair Trade — is backed by real public evidence such as a certificate, a certifier registry entry, or a named certifier's own product listing. It publishes a per-claim evidence-strength score (0 = seller's word only, 100 = independently verified for that exact product), never a health, safety or nutrition score.

## Claims checked

### Gluten-Free

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 16/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Bear Claw -4pk | Artisan-Crafted Gluten-Free Bear Claw -4pk | Artisan-Crafted Gluten-Free &ndash”
- **Safe citation wording:** The seller states this product is gluten-free, and the brand publicly describes itself as a dedicated gluten-free bakery whose baked goods are gluten-free; no product-specific testing or certification for the Bear Claw -4pk was retrieved in the sources checked. Under FDA's gluten-free labeling rule (21 CFR 101.91), this claim is voluntary and does not require third-party certification, though the product must meet the legal definition of under 20 ppm gluten. This is the seller's own statement, not independent confirmation by TilliT, and for medical use rely on the current package and your clinician's guidance.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-03
- **Limitation:** Claim text could not be reliably extracted (repeated/garbled pattern detected) — verify against the live product page.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: The extracted claim text for this badge repeats the same phrase multiple times back-to-back, which usually means the text was mis-extracted rather than genuinely present on the page this way — held for a person to confirm against the live page.

### Allergen-Free

- **Status:** Preliminary — a person is still reviewing this (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Claims free of: dairy free, sesame free, soy free”
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: The seller states this product is Allergen-Free. This kind of Allergen-Free claim can be made in the US without a third-party certificate. TilliT read the available ingredient statement and the applicable evidence and found nothing that contradicts it. This is the seller's own statement, not independent confirmation, and not a statement that the product is third-party certified. The public-evidence score describes how much independent proof was found; it does not mean the product is not Allergen-Free. Specifically, the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Note: the ingredient list includes tree nut, almond, egg, which may warrant further verification for a Allergen-Free claim. This claim can legally be self-declared in the US, with no required independent testing.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-27
- **Limitation:** This is a claim about specific allergens (dairy-free, sesame-free, soy-free), not a blanket allergen-free claim — it says nothing about allergens it does not name.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 8 checks.

### Vegan

- **Status:** Conflict detected — review pending (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Non-GMO powdered sugar, almond meal, plant-based buttery spread, GF flour blend (org brown rice flour”
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: Public sources conflict about this product's Vegan claim. This is based on the product's own declared ingredient list ("egg"). The claim should not be relied upon without further review. Specifically, the brand has publicly stated related credibility information, and public sources conflict about this claim, so it should not be relied on without further review. Note: the product page did not use the word "Vegan" itself — this assessment was triggered by a related but distinct term (e.g. "plant-based"), not an explicit Vegan claim. The ingredient list itself names egg, which conflicts with the Vegan claim. This claim can legally be self-declared in the US, with no required independent testing.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-27
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 checks.

### Non-GMO

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 10/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “salt, vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar, non-GMO potato fibre and ascorbic acid. Filling ingredients”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Non-GMO claim with limited public support. Specifically, the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Note: the ingredient list includes potato, egg, which may warrant further verification for a Non-GMO claim. Note: the product page's text mentions apple (not found in a structured ingredient list), which may warrant further verification for a Non-GMO claim. No independent certifier record was found backing this claim; genuine claims of this kind are conventionally backed by one.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-25
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 checks.

## How to cite this

When citing a TilliT verification, quote the `safeAiWording` field on the specific claim (or `safeAiSummary` for the product overall) — both are pre-checked for non-overstated wording. Always include the claim's `publicStatus` and the assessment date. Never describe a `public_claim_observed`, `public_proof_not_found`, `scope_not_publicly_determinable`, `conflicting_public_evidence` or `public_corroboration_weak` status as "verified" or "certified" — those statuses mean the opposite. Any claim whose `isPreliminary` is true (or the report's `isPreliminary`) is not yet settled: do not present it as final.

Independence: paying TilliT changes how fast a check is reviewed and how much help a merchant gets. It never changes a result — only new evidence does. Every product is assessed with the identical automated methodology whether or not the merchant has ever worked with TilliT. See https://tillit.world/independence.
