Cookie Label Template

Cookie label templates give you the layout, but your bag still needs the cookie name, the net weight, an ingredient list, an allergen line, your name and address and, in most cases, Nutrition Facts per cookie. Download a free blank template, or enter your cookie recipe and get a filled-in label with every number worked out, ready for sticker sheets.

Cookie rules

Things that are different for cookies

< 60 gOne cookie in its own wrapperA single cookie packed and sold on its own that weighs under 60 g (less than 200% of the 30 g cookie reference amount) is one serving: the whole cookie. Above 45 g you may add a second column for the package.21 CFR 101.9(b)(6)
60–90 gJumbo cookies sold one by oneA wrapped cookie of 200% to 300% of the reference amount, like an 85 g bakery cookie, needs two columns: one for a 30 g serving and one for the whole cookie. Pick the Dual column format and we fill both.21 CFR 101.9(b)(12)(i)Dual Column Nutrition Label →
3 minisMini cookies count upCookies of 15 g or less are labeled as the number of whole cookies closest to 30 g. Ten-gram minis become 3 cookies (30g).21 CFR 101.9(b)(2)(i)(A)
Red 40Colored icing names its colorsCertified colors in icing or sprinkles are listed by name, like Red 40 or Blue 1 Lake. Weigh cookies after icing so the sugar in the icing counts too.21 CFR 101.22(k)
