Do I need to highlight the presence of allergens in my food in addition to declaring their presence in the statement of ingredients?
All ingredients and additives used in food products must be declared under the statement of ingredients, in descending order of the proportions by ingoing weight at the time of manufacture.
You are not required to highlight or declare the presence of the ingredients that are known to cause hypersensitivity to individuals (commonly known as allergens) in a separate statement as long as the presence of these ingredients are fully reflected under the product’s statement of ingredients.
More information can be found in the Guide to Food Labelling and Advertisements.
