Quality Monitoring

Generic errors

• Errors

Categorisation errors

• Single ingredient check:
  • Raw hazelnuts should only contain the ingredient Hazelnuts;
• Opposites:
  • unshelled-hazelnuts and Shelled hazelnuts should not be assigned simultaneously;
  • Hazelnut powders and Hazelnuts (whole) should not be assigned simultaneously;
  • Blanched shelled hazelnuts and Shelled hazelnuts with skin should not be assigned simultaneously;
  • Raw hazelnuts and Roasted hazelnuts should not be assigned simultaneously;
• Oneside opposites:

These are categories which are incompatible and which are often due to adding an ingredient as a category:

• • Sweet spreads - to suppress chocolate-hazelnut creams;
  • Almonds - to suppress mixed nuts;
  • Walnuts - to suppress mixed nuts;
  • Snacks - to suppress bars with hazelnut;
  • Dried fruits - to mixes with dried fruits, such as raisins;

Nutritional errors

To be defined

Sales format

Hazelnuts are sold by:

• package - pre-packed in the nuts aisles;
• weight - in the bulk aisles;

Issues

• A change is made to the parent of roasted hazelnuts. This is directly under hazelnuts instead of under shelled hazelnuts. This makes it easier to detect ingredient errors for the other categories. A review is required after acceptance of the changes (11 oct 2024);
