What it is

A wrapper is a thin, edible or non-edible material used to enclose food. Edible wrappers are often made from doughs, starches, or plant-based materials like rice paper. Non-edible wrappers, like plastic or foil, are used for packaging and are removed before consumption.

Why it's used

Wrappers are used to hold fillings together, provide a barrier against moisture and air, and make food easier to handle and cook. They are common in foods like spring rolls, dumplings, burritos, and candies.

Health notes

The health implications of wrappers depend entirely on their composition. Edible wrappers made from common food ingredients generally pose no health concerns when consumed in typical amounts. Non-edible wrappers are not intended for consumption. Regulatory bodies like the FDA evaluate the safety of materials used in food packaging and edible components.

Allergen info

The allergen status of wrappers varies widely depending on the ingredients. Wrappers made from wheat will contain gluten and are a major allergen. Wrappers made from soy or rice are not major allergens. Non-edible wrappers do not contain allergens.
