Manufacturing & Production
▶ Are 【Baby Secret】 organic rice crackers and rice cakes manufactured in your own factory? Or are they outsourced to original equipment manufacturers (OEM)?
【Baby Secret】 operates its own manufacturing facility located in Shulin District, New Taipei City. The factory is dual-certified under ISO 22000 and HACCP international food safety standards. Furthermore, Muguo International’s facility is fully organic-certified across all product lines. Our professional R&D team personally visits production sites throughout Taiwan to carefully screen organic ingredients. From research and development to final production, no processes are outsourced. Muguo firmly believes in protecting our brand by managing our own factory and maintaining complete control.
▶ Are there allergens on the 【Baby Secret】 production lines?
All production line equipment at 【Baby Secret】 does not process any allergens or related products as defined by regulations, ensuring there is no risk of allergen cross-contamination. The 11 food allergens currently listed by the TFDA include: crustaceans, mango, peanuts, cow's milk, goat's milk, eggs, nuts, sesame, gluten-containing grains (wheat, barley, rye, oats), soybeans, fish, and sulfites, as well as their derived products.
▶ Where does the rice for 【Baby Secret】 organic rice crackers and rice cakes come from? Are there pesticide residues?
The organic white rice originates from the Hualien and Taitung regions of Taiwan. Every batch of organic white rice and organic fruits/vegetables is independently sent to SGS or academic testing institutions upon arrival at the factory. Ingredients are tested batch-by-batch for pesticide residues and heavy metals. Production only commences after passing 411 pesticide residue tests and meeting the TFDA standards for heavy metal contaminants. 【Baby Secret】 is stricter than you imagine because we know that every bite a baby takes cannot be handled carelessly. ❤️
▶ Do 【Baby Secret】 organic rice crackers and rice cakes contain added sugar, salt, oil, preservatives, or artificial additives?
【Baby Secret】 organic rice crackers and rice cakes contain no added sugar, salt, or oil. The trace amounts of sugar and sodium shown in the nutrition facts come naturally from the fruits and vegetables themselves. We feature the highest fruit and vegetable content in the industry, using natural produce rather than juices or powders. We are pioneers in providing 14 major nutritional indicators, disclosing all micronutrients found in natural produce for full transparency. This ensures babies receive the nutritional value of organic produce rather than just eating a cracker. Our products have also earned the "100% Additive-Free Clean Label," the highest honor in the Clean Label certification, guaranteeing no preservatives, artificial flavors, artificial colors, sweeteners, quality improvers, leavening agents, antioxidants, or seasonings.
▶ Are 【Baby Secret】 organic rice crackers and rice cakes nitrogen-filled?
By utilizing exclusive manufacturing technology, 【Baby Secret】 significantly reduces the "water activity" in our organic rice crackers and cakes, eliminating the need for nitrogen flushing. We believe deliciousness should be simple and pure.
▶ Why do 【Baby Secret】 organic rice crackers and rice cakes vary slightly in color and size?
Our products are made from fresh organic fruits and vegetables. Since the growth of produce is influenced by natural conditions such as seasons and climate, natural sweetness, flavor, and color will vary accordingly. Consequently, flavor and hue may differ slightly between batches. We select premium produce that meets all inspection standards to let babies taste the most natural flavors of the earth. Additionally, our exclusive technology does not involve compression molding, preserving the natural appearance and texture of the ingredients. Due to minor variations in raw material density and moisture during processing, the size, thickness, and shape of the crackers may vary. This is a testament to our commitment to a 100% additive-free, natural process, allowing babies to enjoy the unique and original taste of rice perfectly combined with produce.
