Overview
- Buttermilk Confections recalled the 45g Honeycomb Blast Choc Bar (batch BM26105, best before 15 June 2027) after the Food Standards Agency issued an allergy alert for milk (casein).
- Consumers with a milk allergy or intolerance are told not to eat the product and to return affected bars to the retailer for a full refund.
- The company has issued point‑of‑sale notices and been advised to contact allergy support organisations so vulnerable customers can be warned.
- The bars have been sold through major UK outlets, which widens the pool of potentially exposed shoppers and raises concerns about cross‑contamination or labelling errors.
- Beyond immediate safety, the recall may erode trust in a brand promoted as plant‑based and could prompt closer checks by regulators and retailers on allergen controls.
