Guam - The test results are back and confirm that a batch of cream puffs from Celebrity Bakery did in fact contain staphylococcus bacteria.  Public health took samples from the bakery and the complainants who went to the hospital with food poisoning symptoms back in November of last year.  Division of Environmental Health Administrator Tom Nadeau says the samples were sent to the Centers for Disease Control and the discovery of the bacteria confirms that contamination of the food occurred somewhere in the bakery's processing step. 

Nadeau adds the bakery had to temporarily halt its operation and an on-site food safety training with all of the workers occurred last month.
