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: This is allergen mislabeling involving a common allergen (hazelnut/tree nuts) without any reported illnesses or injuries, meeting the rubric criterion for High severity.
Plain-English summary
Epic Baking is recalling Cafe' Intermezzo Hazelnut Chocolate Cheesecake (6 lb package) because the manufacturer failed to list hazelnut as a sub-ingredient, despite its presence in the product through Nutella. Lot codes NUT&PLN112322 through NUT&PLN011323 are affected.
The product was distributed to Georgia and Tennessee. The cheesecake contains eggs, cream cheese, sugar, Nutella, cocoa crust (graham crackers, butter, sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla extract), vanilla extract, and corn starch. While the product label lists tree nuts in its allergen statement, the specific hazelnut sub-ingredient was not declared.
This recall poses a risk to consumers with hazelnut or tree nut allergies, who may not recognize the allergen presence based on the ingredient list provided.
Consumers who have purchased this product should not consume it if they have a hazelnut or tree nut allergy. Contact Epic Baking for a refund or disposal guidance.
