This Food Allergens checklist template helps restaurants, cafes, and catering teams identify and document the presence of the 14 major allergens for each menu item. Record allergens such as celery, cereals containing gluten, crustaceans, eggs, fish, lupin, milk, molluscs, mustard, nuts, peanuts, sesame seeds, soya, and sulphur dioxide. Use it to capture details for starters, mains, desserts, and specials, support accurate menu labeling, prevent cross-contact in preparation and storage, and communicate risks to guests. The template enables consistent allergen controls, improves compliance with food safety regulations, and provides a clear reference for staff training and audits.
