Question 1

What's the shelf Life on these and can they be frozen?

Accepted Answer

Hello, shelflife is 6 months, and yes they can be frozen.

Question 2

In the UK, carbohydrates on label are already net carbohydrates i.e. you don't subtract the fibre. Why is your label different?

Accepted Answer

This product is made in continental Europe, where they don’t list in the label as Carbs all the carbs we do in the UK, they consider the different types of fibre (soluble and insoluble) a bit differently than us (some don’t count as carbs).

So as you know, Net Carbs in the UK are calculated by considering only the carbohydrates that affect someone’s blood sugar levels, therefore considering the formula below:
Total Carbs – Fibre – Polyols = Net Carbs.

Therefore in this case, if you consider that per wrap there are 123 calories, from which 36 calories come from the 9 grams of protein, and 45 calories come from the 5 grams of fat, it leaves us with 42 calories to come from carbs, which considering 4 calories per gram of total carbs, leaves us with 10.5g of total carbs (UK way of considering it).
 	g	calories per gram	calories
Protein	9	4	36
Fat	5	9	45
Total Carbs	10.5	4	42
			123

Now as from these 10.5 grams of total carbs, 10 grams are fibre, as you may see in the label. So if we substitute in the formula below, we have the following:
Total Carbs – Fibre – Polyols = Net Carbs
10.5 – 10 – 0 = 0.5

Rounding up 0.5 to 1, we have a total of 1g net carbs.

Question 3

Can these be frozen?

Accepted Answer

I freeze mine if I have a lot but I separate mine, depending on  how many I freeze i place a piece of kitchen paper between each tortilla (makes it easy to separate when defrosting) and place in a large sandwich/freezer bag or if I have a few I roll them. Hope this helps.

Question 4

I'm confused, each wrap is 1g of carbs but on the pack it says 4g? These wraps are made with wheat flour only so how are they keto????

Accepted Answer

Hello, this is Ella, Fitbakes and Stanford University nutritionist, happy to answer your question. Regarding the wheat, you may see in our list of ingredients that we use wheat protein and wheat fibre, so basically we stripped the starch off the wheat, reducing its impacting carbs. It's important to highlight that there is no forbidden ingredient in keto, as far as the desired nutrition to not raise your blood glucose levels is reached.
Regarding the net carbs calculation, this product is manufactured in continental Europe to be sold in the UK and US, so some nutrition details might be considered a bit differently, and we calculated the Net Carbs for you in the safest way possible. Here is goes:

Net Carbs in the UK are calculated by
considering only the carbohydrates that affect someone’s blood sugar levels,
therefore considering the formula below:

Total Carbs – Fibre – Polyols = Net Carbs.
Therefore in the case of Fitbakes Tortilla Wraps, if you consider that per wrap there
are 123 calories, from which 36 calories come from the 9 grams of protein, and
45 calories come from the 5 grams of fat, it leaves us with 42 calories to come
from carbs, which considering 4 calories per gram of total carbs, leaves us
with 10.5g of total carbs (UK way of considering it).
Now as from these 10.5 grams of total carbs, 10 grams are
fibre, as you may see in the label. So if we substitute in the formula below,
we have the following:

Total Carbs – Fibre – Polyols = Net Carbs

10.5 – 10 – 0 = 0.5

Rounding up 0.5 to 1, we have a total of 1g net carbs.
