Who is choosing these wraps?

Coeliac shoppers planning fajitas or burritos

An explicitly gluten-free tortilla-format wrap matters more than sourdough wording. The Old El Paso regular gluten-free pack listed by Asda contains six wraps described as soft and flexible.

Coeliac shoppers packing a filled lunch

A white wrap may suit a rolled lunch. BFree Soft White Wraps and Warburtons Gluten Free White Wraps are listed as gluten-free and display the Crossed Grain Symbol; check their other allergen statements separately.

Shoppers drawn to sourdough flavour

Sourdough describes the product, not its gluten-free status. Tesco describes Mission Sourdough Wraps as wheat tortillas made with rye sourdough, so that listed product is not the gluten-free alternative sought here.

What should you check?

Check the gluten-free statement first, then choose a wrap size and format for the meal you intend to make.

Priority What to check Your needs and surveyed views
Gluten-free labelling Look for an explicit gluten-free statement on the pack. The Food Standards Agency defines “gluten-free” as no more than 20 mg/kg of gluten in the food as sold to the final consumer. If you look for the Crossed Grain Symbol, check it on the exact product. I want a clear gluten-free label, with a certification cue where available. In Coeliac UK’s 2025 Shopping Habits survey, 74.7% of its 3,785 member respondents said they trusted the Crossed Grain Trademark more than a gluten-free statement.
Sourdough ingredients Read the ingredients and allergen declaration rather than treating “sourdough” or “artisan” as a gluten-free claim. Tesco lists Mission Sourdough Wraps as wheat tortillas made with rye sourdough. The sourdough flavour appeals to me, but I still need the exact wrap to be labelled gluten-free.
Meal format Compare pack count, wrap size and the meal format described on the pack. Asda lists six 36 g Old El Paso regular gluten-free wraps and a separate pack of ten smaller gluten-free corn tortillas. For a burrito or filled lunch, I need a different size from the one I would choose for tacos.
Nutrition and other allergens Compare nutrition on the same per-wrap or per-100 g basis. Asda lists 0.47 g salt per 36 g Old El Paso regular wrap; Sainsbury’s lists 8 g fibre per BFree Soft White Wrap. Also read any “may contain” wording. Fibre or salt information may matter to my choice, and a gluten-free label does not answer questions about my other allergies.

Common buying mistakes

  • Assuming sourdough means gluten-free

    A sourdough wrap can contain gluten-containing cereals: Tesco’s Mission listing identifies wheat tortillas made with rye sourdough.

    Use an explicit gluten-free statement as the first filter, then read the ingredients and allergen declaration on the exact pack.

  • Comparing packs without checking the wrap format

    A pack of small corn tortillas serves a different meal from a pack of larger wraps, even when both are labelled gluten-free.

    Check the number of wraps, their weight and whether the format suits tacos, fajitas or a filled lunch.

  • Stopping at the gluten-free statement

    Sainsbury’s lists BFree Soft White Wraps as possibly containing mustard and sesame. Tesco says Warburtons Gluten Free White Wraps are produced in a bakery that uses egg.

    If other allergies matter in your household, assess the full allergen wording on the exact pack.

  • Treating online details as the current label

    Ingredients, allergen wording and storage directions on a product page may differ from those on the pack you receive.

    Before use, read the physical pack for its gluten-free statement, ingredients, other allergens, storage instructions and any certification mark you expect.

Relevant brand references

These examples illustrate different wrap formats and label checks; a brand name alone does not establish the status of every product in its range.

Old El Paso

Asda lists both regular gluten-free tortilla wraps and smaller gluten-free corn tortillas under this brand.

  • The regular pack contains six 36 g wraps; the separate small corn-tortilla pack contains ten portions.
  • Choose by meal format and check the current pack rather than assuming the two products have the same size or ingredients.

BFree

Sainsbury’s lists BFree Soft White Wraps as gluten-free, with 8 g fibre per wrap and the Crossed Grain Symbol.

  • A white-wrap format to consider for filled lunches.
  • The listing says the wraps may contain mustard and sesame.

Warburtons Gluten Free

Tesco lists a four-pack of Gluten Free White Wraps displaying the Crossed Grain Symbol.

  • The listing identifies the wraps as free from gluten, wheat and milk.
  • Tesco says the product is made in a bakery that uses egg; assess that wording if egg allergy is relevant.

Mission

Tesco’s Mission Sourdough Wrap listing is relevant to the sourdough search, but describes wheat tortillas made with rye sourdough.

  • The listing makes the wheat-tortilla and rye-sourdough ingredients clear.
  • This listed sourdough product is not a gluten-free wrap for coeliac shopping.

Questions about choosing wraps

Are sourdough tortilla wraps suitable for coeliac shopping?

Not on the strength of the word “sourdough”. Tesco lists Mission Sourdough Wraps as wheat tortillas made with rye sourdough. Choose an exact product labelled gluten-free and check its ingredients and allergen declaration.

What does “gluten-free” mean on a UK food label?

The Food Standards Agency defines “gluten-free” as no more than 20 mg/kg of gluten in the food as sold to the final consumer. Look for that explicit claim on the wrap you are buying rather than relying on sourdough or artisan wording.

What does the Crossed Grain Trademark indicate?

Coeliac UK says products displaying its Crossed Grain Trademark hold gluten-free analysis certificates and have undergone independent manufacturing audits. Check that the symbol appears on the exact product, and read its current label for ingredients and other allergens.

Should I choose a regular wrap or a small corn tortilla?

Match the size to the meal. Asda lists Old El Paso regular gluten-free wraps as a pack of six 36 g tortillas for filled wraps, while its separate gluten-free corn-tortilla listing contains ten smaller portions that may better suit tacos.

Can I rely on a retailer webpage instead of the pack?

Read the physical pack before use. Tesco advises shoppers to check product labels because foods can be reformulated; the current pack is where you can confirm its gluten-free statement, ingredients, other allergens and storage directions.
