Did you buy one?

The Food Safety Authority of Ireland has issued an allergy warning for a Thorntons dark chocolate hollow Easter egg.

The retailer sells these eggs as personalised, so you can have your loved ones name in icing on the egg, the icing contains milk which is not declared on the label.

This may make the product unsafe for consumers who are allergic to or intolerant of milk, it’s also not suitable for vegans.

The recall involves products with a pack size of 265g – no other Thorntons products are believed to be affected.
