Yes, all La Tortillería products are gluten-free. This includes our full range of corn tortillas and totopos.
Our entire production facility is 100% gluten-free to eliminate any risk of cross-contamination.
Major Allergen Safety
Our production kitchen is 100% free from major allergen ingredients such as gluten, nuts, soy, seafood, dairy, and eggs. This rigorous operational standard ensures our products are safe for Coeliac Australia members and those with severe dietary restrictions who cannot risk any cross-contamination.
Authentic Nixtamalized Corn
We steer clear of the wheat-based binders and fillers often used in the commercial flour tortillas found in mainstream Australian supermarkets. When we stone-grind our corn fresh each day rather than using instant masa harina, the resulting tortillas have a rich, authentic aroma and a soft, flexible texture characteristic of traditional Mexican masa.
Blue Corn Alternatives
Our Blue Corn Tortillas offer a nutrient-dense, gluten-free alternative that is almost impossible to find in any other Australian store. These tortillas possess a distinctively earthy flavour and a slightly firmer bite, providing a sophisticated contrast to the classic white corn variety.
Gluten-Free Totopos
Our White and Blue Totopos are also 100% gluten-free and are crafted from only three simple ingredients. They are lightly fried to achieve a satisfying, artisan crunch that is strong enough to hold heavy scoops of chunky guacamole or traditional salsa without snapping.
Low FODMAP Suitability
Our corn tortillas are not only gluten-free but were also rated Green by Monash University, meaning they are suitable for a low FODMAP diet. This makes them a versatile choice for Australians managing irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or other digestive sensitivities.
Nutrition and Guidance
Unlike wheat tortillas, authentic corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free and contain no hidden enzymes or mysterious additives. While our facility is certified gluten-free and additive-free, we always suggest that individuals with chronic medical conditions consult a GP or dietitian for personalized nutritional guidance.
Where to find them in Australia
You can access our full range of gluten-free products at our Kensington tortilleria, through a network of independent grocers, or via our online store. This ensures that authentic, traditional Mexican masa is easily accessible to every Australian consumer, whether they are shopping in Melbourne or ordering from across the country.
