'Undeclared Allergens' May be in Some Hannaford Cakes

Hannaford Supermarkets has issued an alert about a label printing error on its Red Velvet Cake Truffle and Triple Chocolate Cake Truffle, which was sold in the bakery department.

The cakes may have contained “undeclared allergens.” This means that people with allergies or “severe sensitivity” to egg, milk, peanuts, wheat, soy and tree nuts should not eat these cakes, according to an announcement by the FDA.

There are no illnesses reported in connection to this problem, but the supermarket has removed it from the shelves.

Locally, there is a Hannaford supermarket in West Peabody on Lowell Street and one on Route 1 South in Saugus.

The product, Red Velvet Cake Truffle with UPC #20335800000 and Triple Chocolate Cake Truffle with UPC # 20335700000, was distributed to stores in Massachusetts.

Customers can return the product to the store for a full refund. For more information, call the company at 800-213-9040.
