Candy bars recalled for undeclared tree nut allergen

People allergic to or severely sensitive to tree nuts “run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction” if they eat the recalled Cappuccino Meltaway Bars, the notice said.

The FDA said the company linked the issue to a “temporary breakdown in the company’s production and packaging processes.” It has paused production of the Cappuccino Meltaway Bars “until the company is certain that the problem has been corrected,” according to the notice.  

The recalled 1.25-ounce packages of the candy “may contain undeclared tree nuts (cashews),” an announcement from the Pennsylvania-based company published Friday by the FDA said. 

The recall comes “after it was discovered that the tree-nut containing product was distributed in packaging that did not reveal the presence of tree nuts,” Gardners Candies said in the notice. 

Gardners Candies said the recalled products were part of Meltaway Treat Boxes containing a variety of flavors with the lot number 101625 or 112525.
