Safe Bites is a mobile app that delivers HACCP Level 1 and Level 2 food safety training. Created by a Michelin-trained chef, it is designed to make food safety certification engaging, accessible, and practical for restaurant and hospitality teams across Ireland.

Safe Bites covers both HACCP Level 1 and HACCP Level 2. Level 1 is suitable for all food handlers, while Level 2 is designed for chefs and managers who need a deeper understanding of food safety management systems.

Safe Bites costs €39.99 in total for full HACCP Level 1 and Level 2 certification. There are no hidden fees; one payment covers the complete course and your certificate.

Most learners complete the HACCP Level 1 and Level 2 certification in under one hour for each level. Because the training is self-paced, staff can work through it in a single session or across multiple shorter sessions that fit around a busy service schedule.
