Overview

Cravings, a retail bakery with food service in Vero Beach, has been inspected twice since April 2025, accumulating 12 violations across both inspections. Both inspections resulted in "Met Sanitation Inspection Requirements" dispositions, indicating violations were corrected during or immediately after the inspection.

A priority-level poisonous materials violation was cited as a repeat finding in both inspections. In April 2025, hand soap was stored in a reach-in cooler containing food and was moved on site. In December 2025, sanitizer solution containers were stored on top of a microwave oven used to reheat pastries for customer service and were relocated during the inspection. The facility also failed to maintain written procedures for cleanup of vomitus and diarrhea in both inspections, with the person in charge adding the required documentation point in December. A handwashing sink issue at an outside ice machine cited in April 2025 was resolved by discontinuing use of that machine. The April inspection noted that if a water source for the outside ice machine was not provided within 30 days, administrative action may result. A trainee was present during both inspections with violations verified by the primary inspector.
