Killer Brownie’s® promise to making gourmet brownies safe (and delicious)

Your customers don't have to think twice about eating a Killer Brownie®.  

Our mission is to provide consumers with high-quality, gourmet brownies, and food safety is included in that promise. This commitment to providing safe, quality food can be seen through strict measures to ensure your customers' safety. Through meticulous hard work and dedication, Killer Brownie® can uphold the promise of ultimate food safety to you and your customers. 

A Promise to Your Customers 
The journey to crafting each Killer Brownie® begins with a question that holds profound significance for each employee: "Is this something you would feed to your family?"   

Steeped in responsibility, this question sets the tone for the dedication to food safety that guides every step of the baking and packaging processes. At the root of our passion for food safety is the desire to provide people with a decadent gourmet dessert they can trust; that is the guiding light of the production process as it balances creativity with safety. 

Food Safety Is a Team Effort 
At the root of our efforts is a dedicated team of professionals. Led by our Food Safety and Quality Program Manager, Polly Tartaro, her passionate team understands that their task is not merely to produce the #1-selling gourmet brownie in the country but to protect the well-being of consumers. 

"Food safety is assessing the risks and possibilities of what can go wrong," Polly said.  

And she couldn't be more right. When crafting a product with food safety in mind, team members must be vigilant about potential hazards and take preemptive action to prevent harm. This vigilance is something the entirety of Killer Brownie® takes on, and it's rooted in the care and respect we have for consumers. 

Science and Diligence 
The pursuit of food safety is a harmonious blend of science and diligence. Rigorous testing is at the heart of this process, with regular assessments conducted within the facility and on the products themselves. To maintain transparency and impartiality, these tests are outsourced to third-party laboratories, ensuring that our high standards are upheld without compromise. 

One aspect of the safety protocols is temperature management. Certain temperatures kill potential threats, like salmonella, so each brownie is baked above these temperature thresholds. In addition to strict baking temperatures and rigorous sanitation protocols, Killer Brownies® are passed through a metal detector before being packaged for customers. 

Always Audit-Ready 
While our commitment to food safety keeps us audit-ready at all times, the driving force is not the audits themselves. The paramount goal is to make food safe. Our dedication is not an external response but an intrinsic principle that infuses every aspect of Killer Brownie® operations.  

Creating Joyful Experiences 
Amidst the layers of protocols and vigilance, there lies a simple aspiration – to create joyful brownie experiences. The essence of this aspiration is that no one ever has to second-guess the safety of indulging in a Killer Brownie®. Every individual who encounters these top-selling gourmet desserts can do so with confidence, knowing that behind every bite is a commitment to their well-being.
