: Irish cream liqueur Is the protein powder used in Irish cream liquor made with seaweed and is the caramel coloring made with wheat? I have celiac disease and these answers are very important to me.

Having made Irish Cream and now reviewing several recipes online just to check, including the ingredient list for the more popular brands (esp. Bailey's) I have found NONE that contain 'protein powder' (seaweed based or otherwise). The home recipes commonly omit any caramel coloring and the manufacturers provide no further details beyond "caramel coloring".
The Bailey's site does contain some allergen information, but doesn't even list wheat as a concern...read into that what you will. The do say:

If you are a person with a serious food allergy, you should consult your doctor before consuming Baileys. Your doctor can then contact us for a more detailed list of component ingredients if required.
