Celiac safety profile
McConnell's Fine Ice Creams
Ice Cream Shop
120 State St suite b, Santa Barbara, CA 93101
What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Gluten-Free labeled ice creams (items labeled GF underneath the ingredient deck)
- Gluten-Free ice cream cones
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The facility where all McConnell’s ice creams are made also processes milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, and wheat. This creates a nonzero risk of allergen residue carry over.
- The product information explicitly notes that there is a small risk of gluten-containing residues due to shared equipment.
- Reviews show proactive safety practices (allergy scoops, fresh tubs, glove changes), but these mitigations do not eliminate the inherent cross-contact risk associated with a non-dedicated gluten-free facility.
- There is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, which is a key factor in the safety assessment for celiac disease.
