There was some question about the dairy status of the Light Frappaccino mix brought up in the comment section of my post on Starbuck’s <\/a> the other day. To get clarification, I emailed Starbuck’s and this is the response that I received:<\/p>\n

\n

Hello Kimberly,<\/p>\n

Thank you for contacting Starbucks Coffee Company.<\/p>\n

None of our Frappuccino bases contain dairy as an ingredient. However, the Light Frappuccino Syrup base contains a milk allergen warning on the label because dairy is used as a processing aid during manufacturing. There are no dairy proteins in the Light Frappuccino Syrup base.<\/p>\n

There is gluten in the Coffee Light Frappuccino Syrup base. There is no gluten in the Coffee Frappuccino Syrup base and the Cr\u00e8me Frappuccino Syrup base.<\/p>\n

If you have any further questions or concerns that I was unable to address, please feel free to let me know. <\/p>\n

Warm Regards,<\/p>\n
