Peanuts and other nuts in Home Ice Cream products

All products are made in a production plant that also manufactures products containing peanuts and tree nuts.

Due to the possible use of common lines, the possibility of traces of nuts cannot be totally eliminated from all products.

*Some products are listed as a nut free recipe, as they do not contain any nuts in the recipe, and are made first after the mix plant, pipe work, vats and machines have been washed and sanitised.
