Coffee cake recalled because of undeclared allergen
James Skinner LLC is recalling a large number of Publix Maple Walnut Coffee Cakes because an incorrect ingredient label was applied to the packaging of some units.
The product may pose a serious or even fatal health risk to people with nut allergies if they consume the affected product.
The recalled product was packaged in cases labeled Maple Walnut Coffee Cake, but then inadvertently labeled individually as Publix Raspberry Coffee Cake. The Raspberry Coffee Cake label states “processed on equipment that also processes almonds, pecans, and walnuts” but does not include walnuts in the ingredient list.
Observable through the clear lid, the product features visible nuts on top of the cake and a brown maple topping, while the Raspberry Coffee Cake has no nuts on top and a red topping. The issue was discovered by a retail store employee who observed visible nuts on the product and noticed that the product had a raspberry coffee cake label instead of a maple walnut coffee cake label.
The recalled product was shipped to Sourcing & Distribution Specialists, Winter Haven, FL, who then distributed the product to Publix retail stores in 8 states, including Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.
The recalled coffee cake can be identified by the following label information: Publix Raspberry Coffee Cake; 14 ounces; Lot code 5309; SKU 54591; date of manufacture 11/5/25.
No cases of injury or illness have been reported to date.
