# AlterEcoStore Coffee Brittle — 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.

## Overall (safe to quote)

Coffee Brittle by AlterEcoStore — public trust assessment of 4 observed badge claim(s): Organic: Limited Public Support; Non-GMO: Limited Public Support; Gluten-Free: Limited Public Support; Fair Trade: Limited Public Support. These statuses reflect publicly available evidence only, not a review of the seller's own certificates or documents.

## Claims checked

### Gluten-Free

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 11/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Product tag: "Gluten-Free"”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a "Gluten-Free" tag, and FDA's rule (21 CFR 101.91) allows this voluntary claim without third-party certification, provided the product meets the under-20-ppm definition. The brand's help/about page does not mention gluten-free status, and no match for the brand was found in the fetchable text of the GFCO, Celiac Support Association, or National Celiac Association pages, so independent product-level testing or certification was not retrieved in the sources checked. This reflects a gap in public evidence, not a finding that the label lacks support.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-01
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: Only GFCO's directory was checked among celiac certifiers; the brand could plausibly hold certification through another body (e.g. CSA, GIG, NCA, Coeliac UK, AOECS), and those certifier sites were never searched for this brand.

### Organic

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 4/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “was not found alter eco coffee brittle organic dark chocolate alter eco coffee brittle organic dark”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Organic claim with limited public support. Specifically, the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Public evidence found is brand-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. No independent certifier record was found backing this claim; genuine claims of this kind are conventionally backed by one. This claim's own wording corresponds to the USDA National Organic Program (US)'s 'organic' labeling category (requires at least 95% organic content; may display the official organic seal).
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-01
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** TilliT could not connect this small brand to any company registry, legal entity, or certifier directory. Note that a very small operation (under $5,000 a year in organic sales, or some low-risk handling) can be lawfully exempt from organic certification in the US — so a missing certificate here is not by itself evidence the claim is false. The claim uses the plain word "organic" and does not display the USDA Organic seal.

### Non-GMO

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 4/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “nutrition panel 70% cacao organic, non-gmo, gluten free, no soy ingredients, no preservatives”
- **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, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Note: the ingredient list includes milk, 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. Non-GMO is accurate for this product, but none of its listed ingredients (e.g. corn, soy, canola, sugar beet, alfalfa, papaya, eggplant, pineapple, zucchini, potato, or animal-derived inputs such as meat, dairy, or egg) are among the crop types or inputs with a commercially available genetically modified/GMO-fed counterpart (TilliT uses the US list, which approves more such crops than most markets) — so this claim may not be a meaningful distinction for this specific product.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-23
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 checks.

### Fair Trade

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 4/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “no refined sugar Coffee Brittle icon: fair trade Fair Trade icon: organic icon: no gluten ingredients”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Fair Trade claim with limited public support. Specifically, the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Public evidence found is brand-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Note: the ingredient list includes cocoa, coffee, sugar, which may warrant further verification for a Fair Trade claim. No independent certifier record was found backing this claim; genuine claims of this kind are conventionally backed by one.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-01
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 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.
