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 2/5 (Moderate).
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 II labeling violation for undeclared food colorants with no reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard is insufficient label transparency regarding approved food additives, classified as a moderate labeling deficiency.
Plain-English summary
Elegant Foods, LLC is recalling Holiday Macaron Variety products distributed in Wisconsin. The affected products were manufactured under code 22032A. The recall was issued because the macarons were not labeled with declarations for six food colorants: FD&C Blue #1, Blue #2, Red #3, Yellow #5, Yellow #6, and Red #40.
These colorants are FDA-approved for use in food products but must be declared on product labels. Missing declarations prevent consumers—particularly those with sensitivities or preferences regarding food additives—from making informed purchasing and consumption decisions.
Consumers who have purchased Holiday Macaron Variety should check the product code on their packaging. Those with sensitivities to food colorants should not consume the affected product. For further information, contact Elegant Foods, LLC at 537 Atlas Ave, Madison, WI 53714.
