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: This is an FDA Class II labeling error involving undeclared food color additives. No illnesses or injuries have been reported, and the hazard is omission of label information rather than contamination or a high-risk pathogen. Per the rubric, minor labeling errors without reported harm score as Moderate (2).
Plain-English summary
Reposteria Artesanal Laura is recalling Bizcocho de Boda Puertorriqueño (Puerto Rican wedding cake) products distributed in Puerto Rico. The cakes were packaged in aluminum molds with plastic showcases in three sizes: 10 oz (24-pack per case), 32 oz (6-pack per case), and 51.2 oz (4-pack per case).
