Loudwater Trade & Finance Ltd is recalling Millennium Peanuts Caramel Milk Chocolate. This follows a warning about undeclared allergens on the label.
The recall affects all 285g packs with any best-before date. The product may contain milk, peanuts, soya, and possibly almonds, cashew nuts, cereals containing gluten, and hazelnuts.
As of early Tuesday, the Food Standards Agency warned that allergens are not declared in English on the label. This poses a significant health risk for individuals with allergies.
Consumers are advised not to eat the product. Instead, they should return it for a full refund.
Retailers B&M and Home Bargains have removed the affected product from their shelves. The recall is classified as a precautionary food safety alert.
The Food Standards Agency stated that undeclared allergens can lead to severe or life-threatening reactions. “If you have bought the above product and have an allergy or intolerance… do not eat it,” they emphasized.
The risk is tied to undeclared allergens rather than an obvious defect visible to shoppers. When allergens are missing or incorrectly declared, consumers cannot reliably assess the product’s safety before opening it.
This recall highlights vulnerabilities in supply chain labelling compliance for imported products. Retailers are instructed to maintain withdrawal procedures and ensure enhanced checks on imported confectionery supplies.
