Hi I have two allergen related questions!
We eat anything in my house so I guess there’s a risk of cross contamination with any of the 14 allergens. All my baking stuff is going to be completely separate from my home stuff though but I’d be terrified of anyone consuming anything I hadn’t marked on the label (eg crustaceans 😂). What do you guys do, just mark what’s in the bake or just say it’s not suitable for anyone with allergies and could contain anything? Second - what colour chopping boards do you have? If you cook with nuts etc do you have a separate coloured board, even if you’re highlighting a cross contamination risk? I.e. not a complete nut free kitchen. Thank you!

Thank you both! Yes I’ve designed a label that says about all allergens being used but wasn’t sure if I was going overboard. Good to know thanks ☺️
Label Advice
Good Evening, can I please ask when doing labels, do I need to put my full address on them? Also any other advice, tips & tricks please! I find the whole paperwork/label side of things so hard to get my head around just now 😩

I’ve been looking into this, and if you’re selling ppds like postal bakes, then you do have to have your full address on the label. I really don’t want this (who knows what nutters might turn up at my door 🫠) so I’m looking at a virtual business address as I won’t be doing collections etc

@Jess Lawson from My perspective, people will be ordering from my website and I will bake to order, and from what I’ve read/understand the box they receive must have address on for Natasha’s law. Rules seem to state that as long it’s a real, contactable UK address linked to your business (ie they’ll forward mail etc to you) it’s allowed
Ingredient storage
How does everyone store their ingredients for day to day use? I bought some ikea storage tupperware type containers and they are much smaller than I thought (ordered online to avoid the trip!). Was looking for large containers to store multiple closed bags of flour and sugar, then slightly smaller but still large containers to pour opened ingredients in that I can scoop out. If you can let me know where you get these types of things from it would be so helpful! Thanks!

@Micki-Jay Morgan thanks! I do I think. Are they food safe or is it more to store the bags in them?
