Note on allergies

Many of the products entered into the Awards will carry warnings about nut or other allergies. Unfortunately it is not possible for us to separate these products from all the others due to the blind nature of the judging. Therefore if you have a nut allergy it is recommended that you do not judge at the Awards. The International Chocolate Awards carries no responsibility for any illness caused by consumption of the samples during judging.
