Most all pure chocolate is gluten-free. Unless other ingredients are added, pure chocolate can be simply cacao and sugar. Frequently additional cacao butter is added and often lecithin and/or vanilla. But that is all. It also depends upon the equipment that is used to process the product. If equipment is used that produces other products that do have gluten, then the chocolate could have traces of gluten in it. Both J.D. Gross chocolate bars that we have tried have had the following warnings on the label: "May contain traces of hazelnuts, almonds and milk solids."

Unfortunately, in this increasingly litigious society manufacturers are covering themselves by putting "may contain traces of..." just about every allergen that there currently is, putting the onus on consumers to read the wrapper and make the decision. It does not sound like there is a potential of gluten in this chocolate, or they would most likely have put that on the label as well. Take care.
