Food Allergies

[Tracy]

How old is child when they start having food allergies, because my son who is nearly 2 yrs old, who has mild eczema now, got a rash round his mouth, the only thing I could think of was the blackcurrant water he had, I am allergic to it and is my daughter.  Can anyone help

My now 4 year old's milk allergy didn't surface until she was 2 so it's possible.

We are still finding new things/foods that ds is allergic too and he's four. I don't think there's ever going to be a safe age to assume it's not allergy related.

I'm hoping someone has suggestions...

My son has severe allergies...milk, soy, egg, wheat, oat, barley, sesame, pork, beef, chicken, turkey, lamb, pineapple, peaches...I can keep going but you get the idea.  Any ideas of what to do for his birthday...meaning cake??? We made him a milkless/eggless cake last year, but it had white flour in it...we now know he is allergic to wheat. 

Thank you...
