Dilettante Mocha Cafe Amaretto Bulk Truffle Allergen Labeling Error

Dilettante Chocolates is recalling Mocha Cafe brand Amaretto Bulk Truffle chocolate sold from retail display cases due to incomplete allergen declaration on the display placard.

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: This recall involves allergen mislabeling of common allergens (almond and milk). The display placard's incomplete allergen declaration may not adequately alert consumers with specific allergies to almond. FDA Class III classification and no reported illnesses support the High severity rating per the rubric.

Plain-English summary

Dilettante Chocolates Inc is recalling Dilettante Mocha Cafe brand Amaretto Bulk Truffle chocolate pieces sold from retail display cases at the firm's retail store locations in Washington. The product was manufactured on 6/28/2023 with a best-by date of 11/28/2023.

The recall was initiated because the display placard for loose truffles declares milk chocolate and almond extract in the ingredients statement, but the allergen declaration on the placard states only "Contains: Dairy, Nuts" instead of the correct labeling "Contains: Milk, Almond." This incomplete allergen declaration may not adequately alert consumers with almond allergies to the specific presence of almond in the product.

The affected product is Dilettante Mocha Cafe Amaretto Bulk Truffle sold as individual pieces from retail display cases. Consumers who have allergies to milk or almond should not consume this product if purchased from the display case.

Consumers who have purchased this product should return it to the retail location where it was purchased for a refund or dispose of it safely.
