FSA Issues 'Do Not Eat' Recall for 25 Saffron Pastries Cakes and Biscuits Over Rodent Risk

The agency warns the products may be unsafe due to pest contamination.

Overview

  • Saffron Pastries recalled 25 named cakes, biscuits and pastries after an FSA alert that the items may have been contaminated by rodents.
  • Consumers have been told not to eat the products and to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
  • The recall covers items such as Madeira slices, cake rusk, cream rolls and assorted biscuits, with some best‑before dates running into 2027.
  • Point‑of‑sale notices will appear in shops to explain the recall and advise customers on next steps.
  • Rodent activity can spread germs like Salmonella, Leptospira, E. coli and Listeria, and the action follows other recalls this week, including First National Bakery bread tied to pest issues.
