Allergen Statement: Retail Stores (which contain Peanuts)

Unrefined Bakery Allergen Statement

We Do Not use any products containing Gluten, Soy or Shellfish. Furthermore, our Production Facility does not have any Peanuts on site; therefore all of our products that are sealed for purchase in our self-serve area, are 100% free of Gluten, Soy and Peanut or any possibility of cross-contamination.

We Do have/use products containing Dairy, Eggs, Treenuts, Peanuts and Fish.

We make our items in descending order from least allergens to most. i.e., the bread without yeast, sugar, eggs, dairy, eggs, and nuts is made before anything else that day.

We store our Treenuts, Peanuts, Dairy, Eggs and Fish (anchovy within the Worcestershire Sauce for the seasoning for The Mix) in sealed containers in different areas.

Peanuts:  only in two of our specialty cupcakes.

  • Our peanuts and peanut butter are purchased in single use, disposable containers.
  • The utensils used are cleaned and sanitized with paper towels and kept with the peanuts and away from all other areas.
  • Peanuts, and the resulting frostings are kept on a separate tray, on the bottom shelf
  • All items used with these cupcakes are wiped down with a sanitizer and paper towel which is thrown away
  • We never use cloth towels with peanuts, always disposable.
  • After cleaning with sanitizer, the sanitizer bottle itself is also sanitized to prevent any possible cross- contamination.
  • All cupcakes with peanuts are kept in separate containers.

Treenuts: We use nuts in our Paleo baking and in some of the cupcakes and as a walnut option for our sweet breads and muffins and cinnamon rolls.  We keep these separate and take great care in washing our production smallwares.  We keep the almonds and walnuts and pecans in separate areas, well sealed.  We clean thoroughly and explicitly all around the area and all smallwares used in production, even cleaning the spray bottles of oil and sanitizer, and any other surfaces like the door handles on the refrigerator after using the nuts. We change our cleaning cloths after using Treenuts.

Dairy: On daily basis, we bake the products without dairy before we bake with dairy.  We bake the Vegan sweet breads and cakes on a different day than we bake the non-Vegan. We clean thoroughly and explicitly all around the area and all smallwares used in production, even cleaning the spray bottles of oil and sanitizer, and any other surfaces like the door handles on the refrigerator after using the dairy. We change our cleaning cloths after using dairy.

Eggs: As with the dairy, we bake the products without the eggs before we bake the products with the eggs.  We bake the Vegan sweet breads and cakes on a different day than we bake the non-Vegan. We clean thoroughly and explicitly all around the area and all smallwares used in production, even cleaning the spray bottles of oil and sanitizer, and any other surfaces like the door handles on the refrigerator after using the eggs. We change our cleaning cloths after using eggs.

Fish: The fish is only in The Mix, inside the Worcestershire Sauce, so is therefore easily contained and never in a position to cross-contaminate. We make the mix on a separate day on it’s own tables and then packaged completely before anything is made.  The tables and bowls are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized.

 

 

Cleaning/Sanitizing/Anti-Cross-Contamination Procedures:

  • We are constantly washing our hands. Before, during and after producing or touching different products.
  • We use a paper towel to turn the water on and off to prevent cross-contamination from occurring at the sink.
  • We thoroughly clean and sanitize ALL areas and equipment between ALL products.
  • We even sanitize the oil-spray bottles and the sanitizer bottles and the glides on the plastic wrap that we use to wrap all of our items.
  • We change our cleaning cloths after each product. All cleaning cloths are rinsed, then washed/rinsed in two separate and complete wash cycles on an extra-long cycle with the hottest water possible.
  • We change our dish water between our varying products. We pay critical attention to the pre-rinsing, washing and sanitizing of each item. And as I said, we begin baking the most allergen-free, and then build to those with more allergens. This way, cross-contamination is continually avoided.
