Class I — High risk. Reasonable probability of serious harm or death.
Undeclared nut allergen (walnut) due to mislabeling. The product's printed tasting guide incorrectly identifies the Walnut Fudge and Peach Cobbler flavor chocolates (bonbons). Consumers relying on the printed materials could mistakenly consume a nut-containing bonbon.
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.

Do not eat it. Class I means FDA judged there is a reasonable probability of serious illness or death. If the brand, size and lot or date code on your package match, throw the product away or return it to the store for a refund, and clean any surface or container it touched. If anyone has eaten it and feels unwell, contact a doctor and mention the recall. 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.
