Frequently Asked Questions
Do Piasten Schoko-Linsen contain allergens?
Yes. The label lists lactose (milk), and the product may contain traces of peanuts, soya, and cereals containing gluten from shared production lines. Anyone with a milk, peanut, soy, or gluten allergy should read the printed ingredient panel on the bag before eating, since facility notices can change between batches.
Are Piasten Schoko-Linsen gluten-free?
No. The bag states the product may contain traces of cereals containing gluten from shared equipment, so it is not labeled or suitable as a gluten-free product. Anyone managing celiac disease or a gluten sensitivity should choose a different confectionery item or confirm status directly with Piasten.
Do Piasten Schoko-Linsen use artificial colors?
No. The pastel white, pink, and purple coating colors come from natural colorants, including beetroot red concentrate, rather than artificial dyes. This is a label claim from Piasten, so review the current ingredient list on the bag for the exact colorant used in the batch you receive.
Are Piasten Schoko-Linsen suitable for small children?
The bag states the lentil-shaped pieces are not suitable for small children because of choking risk. They are intended for older children and adults. Always supervise snacking around young children and follow the age guidance and any other caution statements printed on the current packaging.
