Lack of allergen info could result in 'unlimited fines'

1st Aug '14

Bakeries that fail to warn customers about possible allergens in their food could face an unlimited fine, under new EU rules. From 13 December any business serving food must provide allergen information either in writing or verbally. Guidance produced by the Food Standards Agency advises that information should be “easily accessible, in a conspicuous place, easily visible and clearly legible”. Information to be included must cover all 14 chosen allergens, which include gluten, milk, eggs, nuts and sesame.  For further details,  please visit: http://www.bakeryinfo.co.uk/news/fullstory.php/aid/12979/Lack_of_allergen_info_could_result_in__unlimited_fines_.html#sthash.CE31EeJ1.dpuf
