Electric City Sweets, headquartered in Scranton, PA, has announced a voluntary recall of its Red Velvet Milk Chocolate Bars. The recall is initiated due to the presence of undeclared milk in the product, posing a potential risk to individuals with milk allergies or severe sensitivities.
The decision to recall the affected product follows a consumer report to the retailer, indicating an oversight in the ingredient statement. While the packaging prominently displays the presence of milk allergen on the front panel, the ingredient list failed to mention milk as required by regulations.
The recall encompasses 1,644 units of ELECTRIC CITY SWEET 1.75OZ RED VELVET MILK CHOCOLATE BARS, with UPC #860005974467. Specifically, the recall applies to products with Lot 0101461635, Best By Date of 05/16/2025, and Lot 0101542739, Best By Date of 05/29/2025.
These Red Velvet Milk Chocolate Bars were distributed through online ordering at Electric City Sweets.com and various wholesale accounts across several states, including Scranton, PA; Milford, PA; Delray Beach, FL; Marina Del Rey, CA; Orlando, FL; and North Carolina.
Consumers who have purchased the recalled product are strongly advised not to consume it. Instead, they should promptly contact Electric City Sweets for further assistance, including refund or product replacement.
