(A) Every food establishment that prepares, serves, provides, sells, displays or stores for future sale, or offers for sale frozen desserts for human consumption must have a frozen dessert certification in addition to its permit, regardless of permit category.
(B) In order to receive and maintain frozen dessert certification:
(1) One employee from each mobile, stationary, temporary, seasonal or permanent facility or location must attend and successfully complete frozen dessert training. Such training is good for two years. The regulatory authority will provide frozen dessert training four times a year to provide instruction in general operation, cleaning and maintenance procedures.
(2) At least one sample of any frozen dessert pre-mix and one sample of any final frozen dessert product shall be sampled annually by the regulatory authority from each machine operated by a food establishment. Each sample will be submitted to an approved laboratory for analysis of its content.
(3) If any samples collected from a food establishment are not within the standards established in § 95.41, additional samples will be collected and an inspection of the equipment and facility will be conducted to determine the reason for the violation of the standards. No food establishment shall adopt any procedures that would result in repeated failures of the first samples collected for any annual inspection. Two consecutive frozen dessert samples determined by laboratory analysis to be above the limits of the standards will result in suspension of the permit to operate the food establishment or suspension of the frozen dessert certification. A resample and inspection fee will be charged for each consecutive inspection and sample tested after a permit or certification has been suspended.
(C) The certification shall be posted in a conspicuous place in public view.
(D) All certifications issued under this section shall remain in force for one year from the date of issuance unless revoked or suspended.
