https://www.britishairways.com/en-us...-and-pregnancy- When boarding the aircraft you must inform Cabin Crew of your severe peanut or tree nut allergy. If you request it, Cabin Crew will make an announcement so that other passengers are aware of your allergy. Cabin Crew will also suspend the serving of loose nut snacks in your cabin of travel.
Seems fairly clear cut to me. However, if the nut allergy sufferer was in the CE cabin they would not have been able to serve the desert. What then? Also what happens on those sectors where the desert is on the same tray as the starter? Is the tray contaminated and therefore cannot be served? Although the information only refers to loose but snacks.
On a side note, is the OP certain that the desert contained nuts? Does seem to an issue if it did so I find this quite surprising.
