Who are Snickers made by?

Mars Incorporated makes Snickers bars. They are a large company located in McLean, Virginia in the United States that make the most popular candies.

Mars Inc owns Uncle Ben’s Rice, Pedigree, and many other food companies. Your favorite sweet treat is more than likely made by the parent company Mars Incorporated.

They make well known candies and chocolate bars such as Milky Way bars, Mars bars, M&Ms, Twix, and many others.

What are Snickers bars made of?

Snickers candy bar is a mix of chocolate and peanuts, but there are a few more ingredients. The ingredients taken directly from the ingredients list include Milk Chocolate (Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Chocolate, Skim Milk, Lactose, Milk fat, Soy Lecithin), Peanuts, Corn Syrup, Sugar, Palm Oil, Skim Milk, Lactose, Salt, Egg Whites, Artificial Flavor.

There is a nougat base, caramel layer, fished with a chocolate coating in there to create the perfect combination of salty and sweet. Creamy nougat is a common product in candy bars.

The crunchy peanuts layer is perfect for lovers of peanuts and perfect for those allergic to tree nuts, as peanuts are not a tree nut. There are other Snickers products, such as snickers ice cream bars, brownie Snickers, snickers dark chocolate bars, and many more. Not all of the flavors of snickers are gluten-free, so if you are on a gluten-free diet it is important to look at the allergy information, product label, and nutrition facts before eating.

Are Snickers gluten free?

It depends on the severity of your gluten allergy, but Snickers are not certified gluten-free. They do not contain any gluten ingredients, but there is not that certification. So, for those with celiac disease or a heightened gluten sensitivity, it may be best to avoid Snickers bars to avoid an allergic reaction because of cross contamination with gluten-containing products during the product formulation.

Conclusion

Yes, Snickers bars are gluten-free. There are no gluten ingredients in Snickers bars, but that is always subject to change. While snickers bars contain gluten-free ingredients, they are not certified gluten free.

So if you have celiac disease or heightened gluten disease you should avoid consuming snickers products at all costs because of cross contamination risks.

Remember it is a good idea to keep an eye on the ingredient label and nutritional information of everything you eat because things always change.
