  • Laboratory tests detected possible traces of cereulide in one ingredient, and the Austrian Agency for Health and Food Safety said concentrations were too low to pose health risks but unacceptable in baby food.
  • Nestlé posted batch and best-before details on its website, and affected items were withdrawn during the Christmas period, AGES confirmed.
  • Authorities said no illnesses have been reported and Nestlé and authorities stressed no illnesses linked to recalled products have been confirmed; parents should seek paediatric advice if infants show symptoms and rely on AGES and manufacturer updates.
  • Officials said the recall was precautionary and cooperative, reflecting strict food-safety standards as Nestlé prioritised infant safety with Austrian Agency for Health and Food Safety.
