Allergy-Friendly Catering

1) Gluten-Free Catering

Items marked Gluten-Free contain no wheat, rye, barley or triticale. Popular items that typically contain gluten are bread, pasta, cereal, baked goods, and many soups and sauces. Note that common items containing soy, including both soy and teriyaki sauces, also often contain gluten.

Cater2.me is able to accommodate gluten-free eaters by offering appropriate alternatives or requesting that items be made without ingredients containing gluten.

2) Dairy-Free Catering

Items marked dairy-free contain no milk-based ingredients, such as milk, butter, yogurt, cheese, cream or ghee. Eggs, however, are not included since they are not a dairy product.

3) Nut-Free Catering

Items marked nut-free contain no peanuts (groundnuts) or tree nuts like cashews, almonds, pecans, pistachios, walnuts, Brazil nuts, chestnuts, hazelnuts, and macadamia nuts. We can request vendors make items without nuts to accommodate those with allergies.

4) Soy-Free Catering

Individuals who follow a soy-free diet must avoid items like tofu, tempeh, edamame, miso, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, tamari, natto, and yuba. Soy can also be found in common foods like baked goods, cereals, and processed meats.

5) Egg-Free Catering

Items marked as egg-free contain no egg yolks or egg whites. Vegan items are also always egg-free.

6) Alcohol-Free Catering

Alcohol appears in many ingredients and items that one wouldn’t necessarily think of, including pure and artificial flavor extracts, vinegar, certain types of mustard, and more. It is also often used in meat marinades and a variety of sauces. We note that vinaigrettes and other similar items are not technically alcohol-free, as almost all fermented vinegars contain alcohol.
