Frequently Asked Questions
Your products are USDA certified organic, but what about GMO?
All of our products are certified GMO-free per COR standards for organic certification.
Are your products fair trade?
All of our products are made with fair trade ingredients, and our chocolate products are made with direct trade cacao (butter, powder, and mass, aka the three components of the cacao bean). We buy our cacao directly from farmers in the Dominican Republic at prices they have set for themselves.
What about gluten free?
We don't use any gluten ingredients at our facility but because we don't test for the presence of gluten in our products, we can't guarantee that our products haven't come into contact with gluten at our suppliers' facilities.
Do you use nuts or other allergens in your facility?
We use hazelnuts in our Westcoaster chocolate bar. We use mustard seeds and sesame seeds in some of our spice rubs. We don't use any products containing dairy, soy, gluten, or eggs. All of our products are vegan.
How do I use the soda syrups?
We recommend 1 to 2 tablespoons of soda per one cup of water but you might like more or less syrup per cup. It's super fun to play with the recipes and we recommend it! We also love making cocktails with our soda syrups. Often, you just need your favorite spirit, a tablespoon of syrup, and some sparkling water, and you're golden. Check our blog for more ways to use your soda syrups.
My soda syrup lid is sticky and tight. How can I loosen it?
Residual sugar can get stuck under the lid in the bottling process, making the cap stick. If you run the neck of your bottle under warm water for at least a minute, it should loosen up. Have a cap issue? Shoot us an email to info@organicfair.us.
Some of your packaging is made of plastic or contains plastic. Is it BPA-free?
Yes! Always. All plastics that we use are PET food-grade polymers (PET plastics are BPA-free and plasticizer free).
Something is out of stock on the website, but I really want it. What can I do?
Email us at info@organicfair.us and we'll either give you a timeline of when it will be back in stock, or we might even be able to get you the product (we update the website daily, but sometimes we miss things). Often it's just a matter of us making another batch.
I've got a broken or defective product. What options do I have?
Please contact us at info@organicfair.us and we'll get back to you ASAP (usually within one business day). We do our best to accommodate shipping issues and product defects. We want you to be satisfied with every purchase you make with organicfair and we stand by the quality of our products.
