Millions of people around the world enjoy this delicious sweet hazelnut wafer and chocolate treat, which is why we decided to answer the question:

Is Kinder Bueno Gluten Free?

The answer is: NO

Kinder Bueno contains wheat flour as a key ingredient to make the sweet wafer inside, which means this candy treat is NOT gluten free. If you have any form of a gluten allergy or intolerance, we recommend avoiding Kinder Bueno.
