Latest News About Chocolate Recall

Here are the latest chocolate recall updates based on recent sources I found:

• Salmonella-related recalls have expanded in early 2026, with a nationwide recall of Spring & Mulberry chocolate bars expanding to seven more flavors after initial testing detected Salmonella. Consumers were advised not to consume the affected products and to follow store/retailer guidance for returns or refunds. This reflects ongoing FDA oversight of potential Salmonella contamination in chocolate bars. [Source: Health.com report referencing FDA updates, 2026-01-26][4]

• In late 2024 to early 2025 there were multiple recalls involving undeclared allergens (milk, soy, almonds) in chocolate products from Cal Yee Farm and related Bay Area suppliers, with one recall elevated to Class 1 (highest risk) due to potential severe allergic reactions. No illnesses were reported at the time, but the FDA warned consumers with allergies to avoid the affected items.

• Tony’s Chocolonely issued a nationwide recall in April 2025 for seven batches across two flavors (Dark Almond Sea Salt and Everything Bar) after reports of rocks/stone fragments in some bars. The FDA classified the recall as Class II, indicating a possible temporary health issue but not a high risk of serious harm. Consumers were advised not to eat the products and to return or discard them. [Source: Health.com summary of FDA update, 2025-04-16][1]

• There have been multiple local recalls in past years (examples include chocolate products with undeclared allergens and chocolate-covered snack items) that were reported by various outlets, often tied to FDA recall classifications and consumer safety alerts. These illustrate a pattern of recalls driven by allergen labeling issues or contamination concerns.
