North Carolina Chocolate Company Issues Recall Over Undeclared Walnut Allergen

ASHEVILLE, NC – A North Carolina chocolate manufacturer has announced a product recall affecting certain bonbon collections that may contain unlisted walnut ingredients.

French Broad Chocolates PBC issued the recall on April 23, 2026, for their Bette’s Bake Sale Bonbon Collection. The recall covers boxes containing 6, 12, and 24 pieces with batch numbers 260414 and 260417.

The company initiated the recall after discovering the chocolates may contain walnuts that are not listed on the product labeling. This poses a serious health threat to individuals who suffer from walnut allergies or sensitivities, who could experience dangerous allergic reactions if they consume the product.

Customers who purchased the affected bonbon collections are advised to check their batch numbers and discontinue use immediately if they match the recalled items. Those with walnut allergies should be particularly cautious and seek medical attention if they have already consumed the product and experience symptoms.
