Red Velvet Torte Recalled for Undeclared Food Coloring
Epic Baking's Cafe' Intermezzo Red Velvet Torte is recalled due to undeclared Red 40 food coloring. The recall affects 279 tortes distributed to Georgia and Tennessee.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: FDA Class III recall for a labeling violation. No illnesses or injuries reported. Red 40 is an FDA-approved food coloring; the hazard is undeclared ingredient rather than an inherently dangerous substance, making this a minor labeling error.
Plain-English summary
Epic Baking is recalling Cafe' Intermezzo Red Velvet Torte (5.5 lbs) because the product contains undeclared Red 40 food coloring. The firm did not fully disclose sub-ingredients on the label, and Red 40 was not listed.
The recall affects 279 tortes with product codes RDV110722 to RDV011623 that were shipped to Georgia and Tennessee. While the product label declares major allergens—milk, eggs, wheat, and soy—and notes it may contain tree nuts and peanuts, the Red 40 artificial coloring was not disclosed.
Consumers who purchased this product should not consume it and should return it to the point of purchase for a refund.
