Delizza Belgian Mini Cream Puffs Recalled Due to Metal Contamination

Poppies International is recalling Delizza Belgian Mini Cream Puffs due to metal fragments found in the palm oil silo. The metal was not consistently detected during production screening.

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: The recall involves a real physical hazard (metal contamination) with risk of choking or internal injury, but no reported illnesses or injuries. This meets the rubric criterion for a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Poppies International is recalling Delizza Belgian Mini Cream Puffs with whipped filling made with fresh cream due to possible metal contamination. The affected products are the 13.2 oz (375g) size with UPC 6 76670 00107 6 and the 3lb 5 oz (1.5kg) 120-count size with UPC 6 76670 00800 6.

The company discovered small metal pieces in the bakery's palm oil silo during production. These metal fragments were not reliably detected during the facility's standard metal detector screening process, creating a risk that metal could be present in the finished products.

The recalled products were distributed to California, New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington. Affected lot codes for the 30-count boxes include L2L5021, L2M5021, L2N5021, L2O5021, and L2P5021. The 120-count boxes with lot codes L32E5021 and L32F5021 are also affected.

Consumers who have purchased the recalled products should not consume them. Contact Poppies International or your retailer if you have questions or concerns about the recall.
