All food presented to consumers face to face, in packaging, before they select or order it, and which is packed on the same premises from which it is offered (including a mobile site if packed by the same business) is caught by the new allergen labelling law relating to pre-packed for direct sale food. For example, bakery products which are packed at the food businesses’ premises and then sold from the premises, on a mobile sandwich van or at a food fayre. The food must be labelled with the name of the food and a list of ingredients, with any of the 14 main allergens emphasised if these are present in the food. The Food Standards Agency has produced a useful toolkit in relation to the new law here. Within the toolkit are links to specialist guides, for example for bakers, butchers and farm shops etc. The Food Standards Agency also provides free allergens training and resources, which can be found here. Business companion has also produced the following helpful guidance here. The Chartered Trading Standards Institute has also produced a food allergen resource, including information on the new allergen labelling law for pre-packed for direct sale food here. If you have any queries regarding the new law or would like a visit to receive tailored advice and guidance relevant to your business and product range, please contact us via Citizens Advice Consumer Service on 0808 223 1133.
