The agency’s classification

FDA (Food): Class II

Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This recall involves undeclared allergens—specifically milk, soy, and tree nuts (common allergens)—on product labels. The source text does not report any illnesses or injuries. Per the rubric, allergen mislabeling on common allergens without reported illness qualifies as High severity (score 3).

Plain-English summary

Chocolate and the Chip is recalling Gluten Free Nutella cookie cakes (1 LB 1.4 oz / 494 grams per unit, packaged in a brown bakery box) due to undeclared allergens discovered during an inspection by the California Department of Public Health.

The product labels failed to declare the presence of milk, soy, tree nuts (hazelnuts and almonds). While ingredients were listed on the packaging, sub-ingredients and allergen containment information were not provided, creating a potential health risk for consumers with allergies or sensitivities to these allergens.

Approximately 3,000 units were distributed nationwide. The affected products were manufactured between July 1, 2021 and September 30, 2021. Consumers who have purchased this product and have allergies or sensitivities to milk, soy, or tree nuts should not consume it. Those with questions or concerns should contact the recalling firm.
