Confectionery Arts International Recalls Jewel Dust Pearlescent Pigment
Confectionery Arts International is recalling Jewel Dust pearlescent pigment because borosilicate glass material was found in an FDA sample.
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 4/5 (Severe).
The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The agency classification is FDA Class II, and the presence of glass material in a food-adjacent product constitutes a significant injury risk, aligning with the 'Severe' criteria for significant injury reports or high-risk physical hazards.
