Biscotti Label
Biscotti labels need the name, the net weight, an ingredient list, an allergen line that names the nut, your name and address and, unless you are exempt, Nutrition Facts. FDA counts biscotti as cookies, so the serving is the number of pieces closest to 30 g, usually one. Bake twice, weigh once: enter the weight after the second bake and every number on the label comes out right.
