FODMAP Friendly

We’re is excited to share a major milestone: several of our bestselling flavours are now officially FODMAP Friendly certified, making us the first New Zealand-made cookie brand to receive this trusted international mark.

Certified products now include:

  • Cookies: Gingernut, Chocolate, and Vanilla (all pack sizes)
  • Cookie Crumb: Vanilla and Gingernut (all pack sizes)

More products will be tested in the future. This offers a unique sales advantage, as these products are now safe for the growing number of consumers living with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). An estimated 1 in 7 people suffer from IBS! The low FODMAP diet is recognized around the world as the most effective diet to treat IBS, and the FODMAP Friendly logo offers people the ability to easily identify and select suitable foods they can buy and eat with confidence.

The FODMAP Friendly logo on-pack signals compliance with one of the most recognised dietary frameworks for digestive health.

All Kea Cookies are also:

  • Gluten, wheat, dairy, and egg free
  • Suitable for vegans
  • Made in New Zealand
  • Shelf stable with great flavour and texture

With the demand for inclusive snacking on the rise, Kea Cookies fills a growing niche across gluten free, vegan, and now FODMAP-conscious markets. We’ll be updating packaging with the FODMAP Friendly logo over the upcoming months, and we’ll keep you posted when new flavours attain certification.
