Old Fashioned Coconut Bon Bons recall

Recalled by Crown Candy Corporation · Macon, GA, United States

Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

An intermittent ingredient statement labeling error by the firm's label printing company led to the firm's Pecan Divinity products being mislabeled with the ingredients for its Coconut Bon Bon products. Also, the firm's Coconut Bon Bon products were intermittently mislabeled with the ingredients for the firm's Pecan Divinity products. The intermittent labeling errors led to the undeclared allergen of pecans in the ingredient statement of the Pecan Divinity products and the undeclared allergen of coconut in ingredient statement of the Coconut Bon Bon products.

Undeclared allergen: Tree nuts

For someone with a food allergy the label is the only protection. An undeclared allergen can trigger a severe reaction even in a trace amount, which is why most of these recalls are Class I. All undeclared allergens recalls.

FDA's distribution note: VA

Check the codes, then return or discard. Class II means eating it may cause temporary or reversible health problems. If your package matches the recalled codes, do not eat it - return it to the store or throw it away. The risk from an undeclared allergen is to people allergic to tree nuts; for anyone else the product is generally not a safety concern. FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
