FOOD SAFETY
A message from the Owner:
​
In light of the recent COVID-19 pandemic, I want to take a moment to share with you my everyday food safety practices, to put your mind at ease with the procedures practiced within ‘ROCK sugar’ - from baking through delivery.
​
In line with my clients’ satisfaction, food safety is, and will always be my number one priority.
​
Being in the food industry for over 25 years has allowed food safety to become second nature to me.
​
Every day, all decorating tools and surfaces (including, but not limited to, work tables, countertops, light switches, sinks, cabinets, drawers and handles, refrigerator and regular doors and handles, cake turntables, microwave, and fondant sheeter) are cleaned and disinfected using an EPA-approved sanitation solution. Between each order, all decorating tools, tabletops, and turntables are again washed and sanitized.
Once a week, refrigerators and freezer are emptied, cleaned, and wiped down using this same sanitation solution, as well as the additional use of Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes.
​
Every other week, the oven and all storage areas are emptied, cleaned, and wiped down using this same sanitation solution, as well as the additional use of Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes.
​
On delivery days, the outside door handles, and the inside of the delivery vehicle is cleaned and disinfected.
Proper handwashing and sanitizing occurs continuously within the ‘ROCK sugar’ kitchen, as well as latex-free glove use.
​
Food safety and proper sanitation is something I take very seriously and to reiterate; these are practices that occur regularly within ‘ROCK sugar’, not just since COVID-19.
​
Due to the practices mentioned above, adherence to Southern Nevada Health District’s Kitchen Sanitation and Food Safety Guidelines, and Food Handler Safety Training certification, ‘ROCK sugar’ has never received a foodborne illness complaint since its inception in May 2015. I promise to continue these practices to ensure the utmost food safety.
​
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
​
Sincerely,
​
