Birthday cake for nursery

5 replies

ToddlerTornado · 06/01/2026 22:20

Can anyone help, for my DS birthday we are allowed to bring in a boxed cake to nursery which must be suitable for vegetarians and nut free.

Pretty much all birthday cakes in supermarkets say “may contain nuts” so I guess thats not an option!

The only cakes Iv seen that say nut free are also gluten free and or vegan. So not sure if they'll be nice!

There are also a few dairy free children, so also looking for a second dairy free cake!!

Anyo help would be appreciated!!

Above ticks all the boxes.
I wouldn't be worried about taste due to it being gluten free, nursery kids generally tend to love any cake and I'm sure they'll enjoy it.

Sorry, I've just seen it says milk free not dairy free 🤔

my little one is allergic to dairy and this has nothing dairy in the ingredients.

Or there's this one, but you night need a couple depending on number of children, as it doesn't look that big.

I'd double check on the 'may contain nuts' point - our nursery says no nuts but 'may contain' is fine, they'll check the ingredients before giving out anyway and take into account any allergies.
