We are a cafe currently working as a takeaway with online ordering. Can I have an option to add a bottle of prosecco to our cake orders without having an alcohol licence?. How do florists add champagne to flower orders?
 
Some products are alcohol free. ..
Here’s some advice from a solicitor

your online system may have some mechanism to verify age of purchaser to comply with sale of alcohol products to purchasers
 
Thank you. So according to that we do need a licence? Could we partner with another business that has a licence and sell through our site? We would be able to add an option to verify age.
 
AFAIK a licensed premises is that where alcohol can be sold. I think your premises are at a different location so you'd need a separate licence.
 
Get onto the Local Enterprise Office in your council. They will provide good guidance and advice to help you work this.
