Market Definition
Gluten-free breakfast cereal is made from processed grains and often fortified with vitamins and minerals, which is commonly eaten with milk, yogurt, fruit, or nuts. Gluten-free breakfast cereals are processed grains for human consumption and are usually packaged for sale as ready-to-eat (RTE) or hot cereals (HC) and must be cooked before consumption. The cereals are manufactured by continuous cooking, molding, and drying operations, after which flavors, sweeteners, vitamins, mineral fortifications, and particulate additive options are added before packaging. A cereal that has been derived from a gluten-containing grain can be labeled as “gluten-free” if it has been processed to remove gluten and consumption of that cereal results in the presence of less than 20 ppm of gluten in the food.
Regulatory Framework
Food and Drug Administration (FDA): The rule specifies, among other criteria, that any foods that carry the label “gluten-free,” “no gluten,” “free of gluten,” or “without gluten” must contain less than 20 parts per thousand (ppm) of gluten. This level is the lowest that can be reliably detected in foods using scientifically validated analytical methods. Other countries and international bodies use these same criteria, as most people with celiac disease can tolerate foods with very small amounts of gluten.

Drivers/Opportunities in the Gluten-Free Breakfast Cereals Market
- Increasing demand for ready-to-eat breakfast cereals
The ready-to-cook industry has served many consumers and responded to changing demands. The prepared meal made people's lives easier.

Also, ready-to-eat food such as granola and grains are delicious, healthy, and served as healthy meal option when eaten with milk and other healthy drinks.
- Shifting consumer preference toward gluten-free, organic, and whole grain-based cereals
Organic cereals are free from artificial flavors or preservatives, resulting in unadulterated food and diets, leading to a cleaner bill of health.
