A snack company is recalling certain lots of donuts after an allergic reaction was reported, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said Monday.
The Better Bakehouse Snack Company said select lots of Donutful Chocolate Dipped Vanilla Cake Donuts are being recalled because the product may contain undeclared milk.
The FDA said the manufacturer discovered the donuts were mislabeled and has taken "corrective measures." Food recalls tied to undeclared allergens are closely watched because labels are the first line of defense for people managing food allergies.
"People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume this product," the recall notice warned. Officials said the person who became ill has recovered.
The recall is limited to certain lots made and distributed in March 2026: Donutful Chocolate Dipped Vanilla Cake Donuts, 10 Mini Donuts, packaged in a 7.05 oz carton containing five 1.41-ounce pouches, with UPC: 3 50041 39210 3.
The product was distributed to retailers nationwide and through Amazon.com, the FDA said, broadening the range of shoppers who may need to check pantry items and recent orders for the affected packaging.
"Consumer safety is The Better Bakehouse Snack Company’s #1 priority and the company maintains rigorous food safety and quality control standards," the company said in a statement released by the FDA. "The Better Bakehouse Snack Company is working with the contract manufacturer and retailers to remove any remaining affected product from the marketplace."
