# Katz Gluten Free Powdered Donuts | Gluten Free Bakery | Katz Donuts — 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:** Preliminary — a person is still reviewing this (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Powdered Donuts | Gluten Free Bakery | Katz Donuts Powdered Donuts | Gluten Free”
- **Certifier named:** GFCO
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: Katz Gluten Free publicly presents this product as Gluten-Free and some public evidence supports the claim, but the evidence scope is incomplete. Specifically, a certifier lists this brand as certified, but not this specific product, and 1 independent organisation published evidence relevant to this claim. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, facility-level, product family-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Gluten-free rules differ by country: the US and EU allow the claim below 20 ppm (20 mg per kg) gluten, while Australia and New Zealand require no detectable gluten. None of them requires a third-party certification program. TilliT did not find independent public product-level testing or certification in the sources checked, so TilliT cannot independently confirm this claim today — that is a gap in public evidence, not a sign the label lacks legal support. For medical use, rely on the current package and your clinician's guidance. GFCO's standard: Stricter than the FDA's own <20 ppm labeling rule.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-29
- **Limitation:** Claim text could not be reliably extracted (repeated/garbled pattern detected) — verify against the live product page.
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured GFCO match already resolved this badge with higher confidence than a text-directory probe could add.
- **Limitation:** The GFCO product list names "Powdered Donuts", which is the product family, not specifically "Powdered Donuts | Gluten Free Bakery | Katz Donuts"; no exact-item upgrade was made.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.

### Allergen-Free

- **Status:** Preliminary — a person is still reviewing this (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Claims free of: dairy free, egg free, peanut free, sesame free, soy free, tree nut free”
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: Public evidence includes a product-page claim of being free of dairy, egg, peanut, sesame, soy, and tree nut, while the brand's about page describes facility-level allergen practices and its FAQ states the facility is not egg-free and uses soy, without addressing this specific product. US law has no single regulatory definition of "allergen-free," so such claims must be scoped to specific allergens, and batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. TilliT did not verify this claim and does not state that the product is third-party certified.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-27
- **Limitation:** This is a claim about specific allergens (dairy-free, egg-free, peanut-free, sesame-free, soy-free, tree-nut-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.

## 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.
