Allergen matrix

Build the New Zealand allergen matrix per dish, mark may-contain risks, and publish a customer-facing version.

Last updated 12 September 2026

New Zealand declaration choices

NZ sites offer wheat and gluten separately and individual tree nuts. Check recipes, supplier specifications, processing aids and added sulphites at 10 mg/kg or more. Review cross-contact before selecting may-contain statements.

The published matrix retains its declaration vocabulary and reviewer. Review and republish legacy matrices after a country correction; old published versions keep their original meaning. Internal kitchen labels do not create complete packaged retail labels.

Build the matrix

  1. Open Allergens and add your menu items.
  2. Tick the allergens each item contains as an ingredient.
  3. Where a risk assessment supports it, mark may-contain for cross-contamination risks — shown separately from contains.
The internal cross-contact note is for your team only — it is never printed on the customer version.

Publish and share

Publishing creates a clean, versioned customer-facing view. Each published version is kept, so you always have a record of what was shown and when. Download it as a PDF or print the chart straight from the page.

You maintain the matrix and remain responsible for its accuracy — ProCafe keeps it organised, versioned and exportable.
