by carmella mably, from the Community

This bakery best practice verification checklist helps retail bakery teams maintain consistent standards across display, cabinet hygiene, allergen control, and food safety. Use it to confirm correct ticketing and planogram compliance, clean cabinets with tongs and bags available, and proper separation of allergens. Verify safe storage and manual handling, PPE condition, and knife storage. Check trace labels on decantered ingredients, trays stored upside down, allergen warnings on cabinets, and tidy freezers. Ensure production planners are followed, gap scans completed, ASR lines marked, and staff trained with access to the food project manual and customer conversation guidelines.

Bakery Audit Checklist
Use this bakery audit checklist to assess daily operations and maintain food safety and service standards. It covers customer walkthrough checks, product display quality and pricing, PPDS and allergen labels, and condiment station readiness. Verify temperature control for chillers, hot food, fridges, freezers, and prep benches, probe availability and calibration, and required cooking temperatures. Reinforce hygiene and HACCP practices, including handwashing, pest control, cross‑contamination prevention, proper storage and labeling, single‑use cleaning materials, and chemical segregation. Confirm staff knowledge on allergens, illness reporting, and first aid. Review service behaviors such as upselling and order confirmation, and check health and safety items like fire exits, PPE use, and equipment condition.
