It is not GFCF. There are currently no ready frostings that are gfcf.

I called Pillsbury and they told me that the white frosting that I

asked about was gfcf. They scrub the lines so there still could be

cross contamination issues but she said no gluten or casein. This was

the 2nd time I called and got the same reply.

I do have a written reply, but it is 2 years old. Maybe they changed the

formula. I don't know, but it's just to easy to make a quick frosting,

there are only 4 ingredients- powdered sugar, crisco or margarine, vanilla,

and water.
