2 Holiday Sweets Made by Company in West Suburban Geneva and Sold at Aldi Recalled Nationwide
The recall adds new lot numbers and best-by dates after pecan allergen was undeclared due to packaging errors, with no illnesses reported, FDA said.
- On Dec. 24, 2025, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration posted that Silvestri Sweets Inc. expanded a voluntary recall of 5-ounce Choceur-branded Holiday Bark sold at Aldi stores nationwide due to undeclared allergens.
- After the firm discovered mispackaging, it expanded the recall on Dec. 23 after finding Pecan, Cranberry & Cinnamon Holiday Bark in Cookie Butter Holiday Bark bags, and investigations indicate a temporary production breakdown caused the error.
- Packaging details show the products were sold in 5-ounce Choceur stand-up pouch bags, with lot numbers 29225, 28525, 29925 and 30625, and best-by months 05/2026, 06/2026, 08/2026 and 09/2026.
- Consumers are being urged to discard affected bags, and those with pecan or wheat allergies face serious health risks; customers may contact Silvestri Sweets customer service at 630-232-2500 Monday–Friday.
- The agency told Newsweek that most recalls are initiated by manufacturers and shared as a public service; numerous public health alerts have been issued this year, and Newsweek sought comment on Tuesday.
