The loaf named for what went in the dough
A packed loaf sold from a bakehouse, a stall or a local shop needs its name and a full ingredients list with the cereals that are allergens emphasised. Spelt, rye and barley have to be named as themselves. “Sourdough” has no legal definition, so the honest label is the one that lists the flour, the water and the starter you used.

What the law asks of a bread maker
And how ProvenBatch helps you meet each one.
Cereals must be named on the ingredients list: wheat, rye, barley, spelt.
On every plan
The label is built from the packs that went in the dough, so the cereal names come from those declarations, emphasised where they are allergens.
A packed loaf needs its net quantity on the label.
On every plan
Set the packed weight on the product; it prints on the PPDS label with the ingredients list.
A batch code on the bag traces to that bake.
On every plan
Each bake keeps the date, the packs and the printed label, so a code on a loaf is a real record.
Packed weight checks sit with the batch.
Pro
Record what the loaf weighed against what the label claimed, on Pro, as a packed-weight check on the batch.
The regulator's own guidance: FSA: allergen labelling changes for bakers.

Questions
How should I name the cereals on the bag?
Use the name the pack uses, and emphasise the allergen. Wheat, rye, barley and spelt are cereals containing gluten; they have to appear in the ingredients list in the words the rules expect, not as a house nickname.
Can I change my business type later?
Yes. Settings holds the type, and you can change it. The tools you already use stay visible; anything newly relevant is offered, and you choose what to switch on.
Does ProvenBatch make my labels legally compliant?
No software can promise that, and you should be wary of any that does. Legal responsibility for a food label always rests with the food business operator: you. What ProvenBatch does is make it much harder to get wrong: labels are derived from your real data, uncertain batches are blocked rather than guessed, and everything is recorded so you can prove what you did.
