Allergens

The Allergens page lets you toggle which allergens are present in your kitchen. Only toggled-on allergens will appear on printed labels.

Configure Active Allergens

1. Go to Settings → Allergens
2. Select your branch from the sidebar
3. Toggle each allergen on or off

Toggling an allergen on means it is handled in your kitchen — it can then be assigned to individual products. Toggling it off means it is not present — it will not appear on any printed label even if set on a product.

Allergens and Product Labels

Even if an allergen is toggled on here, it only appears on a product’s label if it is also set when adding or editing the product in the Products section. Both settings must be on for the allergen to print.

Natasha’s Law

Under Natasha’s Law (Food Information Amendment 2019), all allergens present in a food must be clearly declared on the label. LabelFood automatically highlights allergens in bold on every printed label.

Multi-Branch Settings

Allergen settings are configured per branch. If you manage multiple locations, each branch may handle different allergens — switch branches using the selector in the sidebar.
