Hello, 

 

As the title suggests, there are certain things i couldn't find or was confused about during the hazard analysis, any help would be greatly appreciated:

 

  • Candied Ginger 
  • Fig Paste
  • Canned Pumpkin Puree
  • Fruit Purees (Aseptic and Non-Aseptic)
  • Fruit Concentrates 
  • Orange and Lemon Peel (Dried and Diced)

Thanks

Hello,

 

You might find the Canadian Food Inspection Agency Reference Database for Hazard Identification useful it can be accessed on their website http://www.inspectio...9/1384900941583 or I have also attached a PDF of the database. 

 

it is grouped by category I.e. candied ginger would fall under the fruit - dried or candied section. 

New Zealand also has an online hazard database. http://www.foodsafet...zards/index.htm

 

Hopefully you find these useful.

Were you able to get any answers to your question?  I tried the New Zealand database and it only have a limited amount of items.  The Canadian website is archived and won't be updated.  I couldn't figure out how to search for anything.

 

Best of luck

Billw, the canadian version, although archived, is still worth using

 

Here's the how to link

http://www.inspectio...9/1384900941583

 

It is a beast to use, but if you follow the instructions, you will be able to search by type/processing step/ingredient etc.

 

I searched candied fruit and associated hazards and this is what I got, it is only for incoming ingredients and I've omitted all the rest for space here;

 

Associated Hazards for Product Ingredient Type of Hazard Hazard FRUIT - DRIED OR CANDIED Biological Presence of pathogenic bacteria (e.g. Salmonella spp.) Chemical Presence of undeclared / non-permitted / exceeding allowable levels of food additives (e.g., sulphites) Chemical Presence of mycotoxins Chemical Contamination from environmental contaminants (e.g., pesticides, heavy metals) Chemical Contamination by non-food chemicals (e.g., cleaners, sanitizers and lubricants) Chemical Presence of undeclared allergens (e.g., nuts, peanut) Chemical Contamination from fumigants Physical Presence of hazardous extraneous material

Please stop referring to me as Sir/sirs

FDA has a similar list of food categories and hazards they deemed worth including in your plan.
