About Our Nutrition Label Generator
Our Nutrition Label Generator helps food producers, home cooks, and nutritionists create professional FDA-style nutrition facts panels. Whether you're developing a new product, creating a recipe blog, or analyzing dietary information, this tool makes it easy to generate accurate, compliant nutrition labels.
What Are Nutrition Facts Labels?
Nutrition facts labels provide essential information about the nutrient content of packaged foods. They help consumers make informed food choices by displaying the calories, serving size, and nutrient amounts in a standardized format. In the United States, the FDA regulates the format and content of these labels to ensure consistency and clarity for consumers.
FDA Label Requirements
FDA-compliant nutrition facts labels must include:
- Product name and serving information
- Calorie content per serving
- Amounts of total fat, saturated fat, trans fat, cholesterol, sodium, total carbohydrates, dietary fiber, total sugars, added sugars, and protein
- Daily Value percentages based on a 2,000 calorie diet

The Importance of Accurate Labeling
Accurate nutrition labeling is not just a regulatory requirement—it's an essential service to your customers. Consumers increasingly rely on nutrition facts to manage their diets, address health concerns, and make informed choices. Clear and accurate labeling builds trust with your customers and demonstrates your commitment to transparency and quality.
While our generator provides a convenient way to create nutrition facts labels, we recommend validating your nutritional data through laboratory analysis for commercial products to ensure complete accuracy and compliance with all applicable regulations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to include all nutrients on my label?
For FDA compliance, you must include calories, total fat, saturated fat, trans fat, cholesterol, sodium, total carbohydrates, dietary fiber, total sugars, added sugars, protein, vitamin D, calcium, iron, and potassium. Some small businesses may qualify for exemptions that allow simplified labeling. Check the FDA website or consult with a regulatory expert to determine if your product qualifies for any exemptions.
How do I determine the nutritional content of my product?
There are several methods for determining nutritional content: (1) Laboratory analysis, which is the most accurate but also the most expensive; (2) Database analysis using the USDA Food Composition Database or similar resources to calculate values based on your ingredients; (3) Recipe analysis software that can calculate nutrition information based on ingredients and amounts. For commercial products, laboratory analysis is recommended for the most accurate results.
Are these labels compliant with regulations outside the United States?
This generator creates labels that follow FDA guidelines for the United States. Nutrition labeling requirements vary by country, and other regions like the European Union, Canada, Australia, and others have different required formats and information. If you're selling products internationally, you'll need to ensure compliance with local regulations for each market.
