Albertsons store-made Yellow Caramel Pecan Cakes are being recalled because the contains statement does not declare pecan. 39 units in total are affected.

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: FDA graded this Class III, which the rubric places in the 1-2 band, and the product description names pecan even though the contains statement omits it.

Plain-English summary

Albertsons store-made yellow caramel pecan cakes, sold under UPCs 28832500000 (half 8-inch) and 28831600000 (2-layer), are being recalled. The items are sold by unit at point of sale with a grocery scale label. The action covers 39 units in total.

The stated reason is that the contains statement does not declare pecan. Pecan is a tree nut and a major food allergen required to be declared, although pecan is named in the product description itself. The FDA classified the action as Class III, its least serious classification, which is applied where use of the product is not likely to cause adverse health consequences.

Affected product was labelled with a packed on date of May 05 26 or before. Distribution was nationwide.

People with a tree nut allergy or sensitivity should not eat the product and should return it to the place of purchase. Anyone who has eaten it and has an allergic reaction should seek medical advice.
