Allergen label maker (PPDS)

The allergen label maker prints labels for food you pack before customers order it (PPDS, Natasha's Law). Type the name and the ingredients; it emphasises the 14 allergens every time they appear, checks the text is at least the legal minimum size and lays the labels out on A4 label sheets or label-printer sizes.

Questions

Does the tool decide the allergens for me?

It suggests them from the words in your ingredients. You check every one against your suppliers' labels and tick that you have before you can download.

Can I show the allergens on my online menu too?

Yes. Tag the 14 allergens on each dish in your Menuthere menu. See Allergens and nutrition.

What about loose food?

Food served unpacked needs allergen information too, but not this label. Print an Allergen chart instead.
