Allergen Information
Complete Peace of Mind, Guaranteed
At Positive Bakes, allergen safety isn't just important - it's everything. We understand that for many of our customers, this isn't about preference, it's about wellbeing. That's why we've built our entire operation around one promise: absolute confidence in every bite.

Our Dedicated Facility
Leicester Food Park - Purpose-Built for Safety
Our modern bakery sits on a BRC-certified site within a gated community, designed specifically for allergen-free production. We don't share space, equipment, or suppliers with any facility that handles gluten, dairy, eggs, or soya.
This isn't retrofitting - this is purpose-built perfection.
