Bake Sale Guidelines
The Office of Environmental Health and Safety has established the following guidelines for the sale of doughnuts, baked goods and hot beverages on the CSUF campus. These guidelines are intended to help campus groups maintain sanitary practices while offering the above listed items for sale.
All campus bake sale activities must operate within the
following guidelines:
- Obtain a Facility Reservation Request Form from the Dean of Students.
- Individually wrap each baked good or provide a display cover. Covering may consist of a hard plastic case or plastic wrap. Unwrapped items must be handed to the public using tongs, wax paper, or paper napkins. Self service of individually wrapped items is allowed.
- Doughnuts and other baked goods should not have crème, whipped cream, or custard filling.
- Self service liquid containers must be fully enclosed to prevent access to the liquid contents.
- Self service items such as creamer, sugar, hot chocolate, and soups, must be individually wrapped. Sugar and dry creamer may be served in a closed shaker type container. The public may not spoon these items directly from open containers.
All campus bake sales and associated events are subject to inspection by Environmental Health and Instructional Safety. Failure to comply with these guidelines and other University regulations may result in closure, loss of future privileges, and disciplinary action. A copy of the Facility Reservation Request Form must be made available at the activity site.
