How to use this nutrition label generator

1

Enter serving information

Start by defining your serving size (amount in household measure, like "1 cup" or "3 cookies") and servings per container. These appear at the top of your label and determine how all nutrient values are displayed.

2

Input nutrient values

Enter values for each nutrient per serving: Calories, Total Fat, Saturated Fat, Trans Fat, Cholesterol, Sodium, Total Carbohydrate, Dietary Fiber, Total Sugars, Added Sugars, Protein, Vitamin D, Calcium, Iron, and Potassium. Percent Daily Values are calculated automatically based on FDA reference amounts.

3

Select label format

Choose the format that fits your packaging: Standard Vertical (default FDA format for most products), Tabular (horizontal layout for wide packages), or Linear (for very small packages).

4

Generate and download

Click "Download Label" to preview your nutrition facts panel. Download as PNG for digital use or send directly to your printer. Labels are print-ready at high resolution.

Tips for accurate nutrition labels

Use reliable nutrient data

The USDA FoodData Central database provides nutrient values for thousands of ingredients. For packaged products, use values from supplier specifications or laboratory analysis.

Round correctly

FDA regulations specify rounding rules for each nutrient. Our generator handles rounding automatically—simply enter your calculated values.

Verify serving sizes

FDA defines Reference Amounts Customarily Consumed (RACCs) for food categories. Your serving size should reasonably align with these standards.

Consider laboratory testing

For products making nutrient content claims ("low sodium," "high fiber") or sold through major retailers, lab analysis provides defensible accuracy.

Need help with nutritional calculations?

This generator creates labels from values you provide. If you need to calculate nutritional values for a recipe:

Use ingredient databases

USDA FoodData Central offers free access to nutrient data for thousands of foods.

Account for cooking changes

Some nutrients change with cooking methods. Factor this into your calculations.

Calculate per serving

Divide total recipe nutrients by the number of servings to get per-serving values.

For commercial products, consider professional nutritional analysis services for the highest accuracy.

How this generator builds your label

We are transparent about exactly what the tool does. You enter your nutrient values and serving information; we arrange them into the layout the FDA specifies in 21 CFR 101.9 — correct nutrient order, the mandatory items added in the 2020 update (added sugars, Vitamin D, potassium), minimum font sizes, and the bold calorie display. Percent Daily Values are computed automatically from the FDA's published reference values, and figures are rounded using the FDA's rounding conventions.

Everything is rendered locally in your browser. The data you enter is not uploaded to or stored on our servers, so a proprietary recipe stays private. Finished labels export as a 300 DPI PNG or a print-ready PDF — no watermark, no signup.

Reference data for calculating your own values comes from the USDA's FoodData Central. Important: the tool formats and calculates, but does not verify the accuracy of the values you enter, and does not by itself guarantee compliance. For commercial products, confirm your label against current regulations with a food regulatory specialist. Full details are in our disclaimer.
