I received a free copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.  All opinions are my own.

Author NEMO goes into depth on the importance of following the laws regarding labelling in author NEMO’s “Labelling and European Legislation.”

THE SYNOPSIS

A wrong label blocks a product that is already finished and costs an entire print run of packaging. The rules are precise down to the millimetres of the type.

Six chapters: the regulatory framework, the mandatory elements, allergens and cross-contamination in shared spaces, nutrition information and health claims, packaging, from materials to sustainability, and digital labelling. With Reg. 1169/2011, the US FDA rules and the British Natasha’s Law.

THE REVIEW

Readers can learn the steps to create the perfect label for the vegan products they want to sell, and see how European laws differ from those in other countries. The author continues to explore the business side of vegan kitchens, helping readers feel they can start their own business using recipes from earlier books; this book adds to that by focusing on the requirements for creating a legal label and saving money on reprints.

The author’s level of detail is incredible, down to the font type and spacing needed to make the label not only legible but also compliant with regulations. Speaking of regulations, the book also delves into European-specific laws and not only how they differ from USDA certification, but how they impact the labeling process as well.

THE VERDICT

Detailed, insightful, and memorable, Author Nemo’s “Labelling and European Legislation” is a must-read non-fiction book on vegan kitchens and business practices. Its knowledge and educational value make it a great reference for readers building the businesses they hope to start, and it broadens understanding not only of European laws, but also of why such specific details are needed to create labels for vegan products.
