Here at OMG Decadent Donuts, our objective is to ensure we make soft, fluffy, and utterly decadently delicious donuts. The taste and texture are hugely important to us – the flavour of the bespoke sugars made from fresh fruit, vege and spices are a taste sensation, it’s a fun treat designed to make people feel happy, we don’t take ourselves too seriously, we know it’s only a donut, but the one thing we do take very seriously indeed is food safety.
With the commitment to offering an inclusive a treat, we want as many people as possible to be able to enjoy them and we’ve gone to extraordinary lengths to ensure we are one of, if not THE most accredited food business in Australia and New Zealand. Why – because it is a safety measure.

What the donut are these?
Safe Food Australia
Safe Food Australia provides food safety training, auditing, and a consultancy services to a diverse range of food businesses around the country including food wholesalers/manufacturers, dairy farms, cold storage facilities and stockfeed mills. The organisation assists clients with their ongoing quality improvements and food safety compliance.
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP)
An internationally recognised food science organisation specialising in the HACCP Food Safety Methodology. and its applications within the food and related non-food industries. This methodology identifies and manages risk and, when central to an active food safety programme, it can provide vendors, the public and government sector bodies with a high degree of comfort that food safety is being taken seriously and is well-managed.
Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)
Good Manufacturing Practices is about making sure the products supplied in Australia are safe, reliable, and effective for their intended purposes. The system consists of processes, procedures and documentation that ensures manufacturing products, such as food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical goods, are consistently produced and controlled according to set quality standards. GMP protects both the company and the consumer from negative food safety events, cutting down on waste, losses, avoiding recalls, seizures, fines, and even jail time. Manufacturers can ensure this by using consistent manufacturing processes, with adequate supervision, and with an effective quality control process.
The Safe Quality Food Program (SQF)
Recognised by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI), SQF is a food safety and quality program designed to meet industry, customer, and regulatory requirements for all sectors of the food supply chain – from primary production e.g., the farm, through to food manufacturing, distribution, food packaging and retail. Retailers, brand owners, and food service providers around the world utilise the SQF program.
The list goes on
In addition to these national and international services, there are many local government requirements that we must comply with. This varies from region to region.
Safety for all
It’s fair to say we are a little obsessed with our certifications and accreditations, they cost a motza too, but we feel these are important to ensure the peace of mind of our customers and the safety of everyone who enjoys a bit of scrumptiousness when they bite into one of our decadently delicious donuts.
You’re welcome!
