Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A
Health and Safety advice.
Hello, I am about to start a cake business from home and would like advice on labelling with regards to allergens. I have read all the advice on gov.co.uk but I am unsure as to how far to take this. there does not seem to be set advice for selling cakes from home. I would like to know this before I am inspected. If you know of a website that gives this information that would be helpful. I have my food hygiene certificate and am aware of all the Allergens but do I need to display this on the cake box as well as in my home.
Thankyou.
Hi miwl, thanks very much will do.
Thankyou very much team, I am now viewing it, not very good at this technical stuff.

Hi miwl, thanks for the help, I have watched the pro business tutorial on health and hygiene but this tutorial doesn’t seem to include information on handing an allergen list to the customer, but I will wait for the pro members Q&A session on 25th February. Also one more question please, I joined facebook .com cakeflix family but cant seem to access the previous Q&A sessions
thankyou.
Hi Sandra
You’d be better off joining the pro members Facebook group. If you drop David an email he’ll be able to help you access past Q & As and join you in the Pro members group. Contact him on
[email protected] or message him on Facebook.
Your local environmental health officer will also advise you. Ask them about anything that’s worrying you. They’re very helpful. ?
