Food Safety Recall: Undeclared Wheat Allergens in Custard Tarts
On October 17, 2025, a significant food safety incident was reported involving part baked custard tarts that have been found to contain undeclared wheat allergens. This issue has been traced back to products originating from Portugal.
The presence of undeclared allergens poses a serious risk to individuals with wheat allergies, as even trace amounts can trigger severe allergic reactions. It is crucial for consumers with such allergies to be aware of this recall and to avoid consuming the affected products.
The recall was initiated following an investigation by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland, which identified the hazard category as allergens. Consumers are advised to check their homes for any packages of the affected custard tarts and to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
Food safety is paramount, and incidents like this highlight the importance of clear labeling and communication regarding allergens in food products. Manufacturers are urged to implement stringent quality control measures to prevent such occurrences in the future.
For those affected by this recall, it is recommended to consult with healthcare professionals if any adverse reactions occur after consuming the product. Staying informed and vigilant about food safety can help protect individuals from potential health risks associated with food allergens.
