Carrot Cake Recalled for Undeclared Cashew and Almond Allergen

Super Size Golden Harvest Carrot Cake is being recalled because pieces of cashew and almond were found in the box of walnuts used to make the product. Consumers with tree nut allergies should not consume this product.

What this means for you

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: Tree nuts are common allergens and allergen mislabeling is a recognized hazard under FDA criteria. No illnesses or injuries have been reported, but the undeclared cashew and almond in a walnut-containing product poses a risk to consumers with tree nut allergies.
