Allergies
Try to avoid the use of nuts, but if there are you must make it known with clear warning signs. Ask customers if they have any allergies or dietary requirements and make sure that if they do, they stay clear of them.
-
Labelling
Dairy-free, gluten-free and any food that could contain nuts must kept apart from each other, in their own section and clearly labelled.

Hygiene
Make sure everyone washing their hands before preparing food and doesn’t use any out-of-date ingredients. Wash your hands regularly before setting up and on the day. Don’t touch the food, use tongs or a cake slice instead. Store cakes in a clean, airtight and sealable container, away from foods after preparation and for transportation.
