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 is classified as FDA Class I, but the specific hazard is allergen mislabeling on a common allergen (egg) with no reported illnesses, which aligns with the 'High' severity criteria in the rubric.

Bakers of Paris, Inc. is recalling 645 individual chocolate croissants sold in Northern California. The products were sold in self-serve cases and 4-pack clamshell packages.
