Recalled by Authentic Gourmet · Miami, FL, United States
Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.
The recall was initiated because Authentic Gourmet was alerted by FDA sample analysis that the Strawberry Cake and the Raspberry Cake has non-permitted color additive and allergen, cochineal red A (also known as ponceau 4R).
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.
