What is Kosher Certified?

While browsing our selection of bakery paper products, you will notice that some products are described as "Kosher Certified." Most know this relates to the Jewish religion, but are unsure what it means for a paper product to be Kosher Certified. Read on for answers to all your questions and to learn why using Kosher Certified in your kitchen is a benefit to your customers!

What does kosher mean?

Most commonly, kosher refers to a food that is accepted by Jewish law as fit for eating or drinking. In the case of our bakery products, kosher means they are fit for touching, cooking, serving, and coming in contact with food. A common misconception is that something is kosher after being "blessed" by rabbis, but in reality, kosher foods and items are held to rigorous manufacturing and processing standards. For our products, Kosher Certification involves inspection of components, close examination of the manufacturing process, and thorough inspection of processing facilities. Kosher Certification is a stamp of quality and purity.

Why buy Kosher Certified?

The vast majority of people who purchase kosher goods do so for health and safety reasons because they know they are receiving a product that is of the highest quality. When you purchase kosher bakery paper products, you can rest assured that you are serving your customers on items of the best quality.
