Breakfast biscuits recalled due to undeclared milk

Some packs of Soft Bakes Choco Hazelnut Flavour biscuits were incorrectly packed with Soft Bakes Choc Chips which contain milk.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has announced that Belvita Soft Bakes Choco Hazelnut Flavour breakfast biscuits has been recalled by Mondelez UK because milk was not declared on the label.

The recall has been issued because some packs of the product may have been incorrectly packed with Belvita Soft Bakes Choc Chips breakfast biscuits which contain milk. This means the product is a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents.

The company is recalling the product from customers and has said it has contacted the relevant allergy support organisations, which will tell their members about the recall.
