Nutrition & Allergen

Allergens

Onyx Hive is not an allergen-free, dairy-free, egg-free and vegan business. Onyx Hive makes every attempt to identify ingredients that may cause an allergic reaction for those with food allergies. However, there is always a risk of contamination as in our kitchen we use products such as milk, eggs, and products that contain gluten, such as wheat-flour but we do offer gluten-free cakes which uses rice flour. We have strict cross-contamination policies; we can not guarantee a total absence of these products in any of our products. Customers with food allergies must be aware of this risk.

Onyx Hive sources the ingredients through Australian suppliers and will pass on the products’ nutrition and allergen information to you. For example, our chocolate is not made from scratch and is purchased from a supplier (such as Cadbury). The packaging labeling state: “May contain wheat, gluten, peanuts, tree nuts.” In-which Onyx Hive will pass on this information to the consumer.

Onyx Hive is not liable for adverse reactions from the food consumed, or items one may come in contact with whilst eating any of our products or itemised food sources.

    Please note: Cakes that contain dark chocolate mousse are made with packet chocolate from our supplier, which carries the following allergen statement: "May contain wheat, gluten, peanuts, and tree nuts." All other cakes, the mousse is flavoured with condensed milk and do not contain this allergen statement.
