The Little Boutique Bakery - Home Caterer food hygiene rating

Other catering premises · Cornwall

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 3 November 2014, more than 11 years ago. A lot can change in a kitchen in that time, and a rating this old says more about the business then than now. Councils prioritise re-inspecting higher-risk premises, so a long gap often means the business is considered low-risk.

How it compares in Cornwall

That puts The Little Boutique Bakery - Home Caterer among the 4,461 places in Cornwall holding top marks, 85% of everywhere the council rates. A 5 is the norm here rather than the exception, so it is the rating to expect, not to be impressed by.

What the inspector found

An inspection scores three things: how food is handled, the physical condition of the premises, and how much the inspector trusts management to keep standards up. At The Little Boutique Bakery - Home Caterer none of the three raised a concern, the overall rating is only ever as strong as its weakest area, so a clean sweep is what produces a high score.
