Hi all,

I am modifying my HA for raw materials. We are a low risk conf. 

 

Under "Allergens" hazard - what should my programs be in effect to ensure safety? My ingredients are sugar, cocoa powder, salt etc.

Some ideas. It will all depend on your process, so some may not be applicable.

 

Storage: How you prevent cross-contamination, allergen separation in dry storage, etc.

Supplier Approval: Process for approving new supplier, product testing, ingredient spec sheets, etc.

Employee Policy: No food/drink in the processing area, no personal items, handwashing after lunchbreak, etc.

 

Anything you do to prevent allergen risks should be mentioned.

Thanks alton. I meant for ingredients as they come in.

[AltonBrownFanClub]

Sorry I misinterpreted. 

 

You could list a receiving SOP that says you will not accept items that have been opened or damaged.

The risk of cross-contamination with other ingredients would be the allergen hazard you're controlling.
