Company Announcement

BOSTON BAKING, Inc. of Boston, MA, is recalling its 3-ounce, individually wrapped packages "Boston Baking Mini Cinnamon Crumb Cakes" food snacks sold exclusively at Whole Foods Market stores because they may contain undeclared pecans. People who have allergies to pecans run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.

The recalled "Boston Baking Mini Cinnamon Crumb Cakes" were sold in CONNECTICUT, MASSACHUSETTS, NEW HAMPSHIRE, RHODE ISLAND, NEW JERSEY AND NEW YORK at select Whole Foods Market stores.

The affected product comes in a 3-ounce, clear plastic package marked with “Packed On” date of 10/17/22-11/10/22 and with a “Sell By” date of 10/22/22-11/15/22 and UPC (01)00238543000007(3904)0019900 printed on the back label.
