HACCP
Making food that's safe to eat.
Your Fruit Tarts HACCP Plan
You have been given a HACCP Plan for your fruit tarts (left).
You must determine when to carry out the necessary checks, and make sure you are following the control methods to prevent contamination in all your processing steps and your final fruit tart. Fill in the WHEN blanks under "monitoring check" column.
Paste this plan into your portfolio. Determine what order you will follow these control methods and checks in. Number them 1-7. π
SPECIFICATIONS
Checking the final fruit tart ticks all the boxes.
Your Fruit Tarts Specifications
Your final fruit tart will be measured against each of these specifications. It must meet all of these to pass the assessment.
Fill in the table. Judge your tart against each specification, and provide evidence (include photos).
Insert photos of your finished fruit tart. Paste into your portfolio. π
QUALITY ASSURANCE PLAN
Tests to ensure it will be a great tart.
Your Quality Assurance Plan
You must decide which tests you will carry out during your processing. The test results will guide you to improve your product.
Fill in the QA Plan, print it out and paste into your portfolio. π
You also need to include all the tests in your Flow Diagram.
PROCESSING: Key Points for a Great Fruit Tart
During your cooking trials you will find things that you realise are important for making a great fruit tart. Make sure you write down these points, maybe attach relevant photos and annotate them.
You may also realise points that save time or ingredients. Write these down too and paste into your portfolio.
FLOWCHARTS
Sequencing, putting everything into the best order.
Practice Flowcharts
Work through the Slideshow above. Do the last exercise - making a flowchart for 2 minute noodles, and toast at the same time. Efficiency!
Create Your Fruit Tart Processing Flowchart
It must include:
Every process (e.g. mixing, baking, cooking, cooling, blending)
Every test (Quality Assurance Plan)
You could also indicate any HACCP control points on your flowchart.
Post-It Notes are an easy way to make your boxes. Cut them smaller with scissors, stick them on. When you are sure everything fits, glue them down and draw the arrows. Paste each version of your flowchart into your portfolio. π
Think about efficiency - parallel operations. While one thing is waiting, the next thing is started already.
