Dilettante Mocha Cafe Caramels Display Placard Allergen Labeling Inconsistency
Dilettante Chocolates Inc is recalling caramels sold from display cases because the display placard's allergen statement is incomplete. The placard lists only 'Contains: Dairy' despite cream and butter being shown in the ingredients list.
The agency’s classification
FDA (Food): Class III
Class III is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product is not likely to cause adverse health consequences.
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 III recall involving a labeling inconsistency between the display case placard and product packaging. While dairy is disclosed on the placard, the allergen statement is less detailed than the ingredient list. No illnesses or injuries have been reported. Per the severity rubric, FDA Class III recalls are typically rated 1-2, and this represents a minor labeling discrepancy rather than an undisclosed allergen or documented hazard.
Plain-English summary
Dilettante Chocolates Inc is recalling Dilettante Mocha Cafe brand Himalayan Pink Salt Bulk Caramels sold from retail display cases. These are perishable confections sold individually at the firm's retail locations.
The issue involves an inconsistency on the retail display case placard. The placard lists cream and butter in the ingredients statement but declares only 'Contains: Dairy' in the allergen statement. The bulk product boxes distributed to retail stores contain correct labeling with 'Contains: Milk.' This discrepancy between the display placard and the product packaging could cause confusion for consumers checking allergen information.
The recall affects customers who purchased the product from display cases at Dilettante Chocolates Inc retail locations in Washington State. Consumers with dairy allergies who relied solely on the display placard may not have received complete allergen information at the point of purchase.
For questions about allergen content or product safety, consumers may contact the manufacturer at dilettantemochacafe.com or visit their website.
