3 min read- Ghirardelli has voluntarily recalled several powdered beverage mixes over possible Salmonella contamination.
- The issue is tied to a larger milk powder recall involving a third-party supplier.
- While the products were mainly meant for food service and institutional customers, some may have also been sold online.
It may not be peak hot cocoa season, but if you like indulging no matter the weather, you may want to check your pantry. Ghirardelli Chocolate Company has voluntarily recalled a handful of its powdered beverage mixes due to possible Salmonella contamination.
According to the recall notice, the affected products were packaged in “larger formats intended mainly for food service and institutional customers.” That said, some of the mixes may also have been sold online through e-commerce platforms, meaning there is a chance they ended up in home kitchens, too.
The recall is connected to a separate milk powder recall by California Dairies, Inc., whose product was later distributed as an ingredient in powdered beverage mixes, including Ghirardelli’s.
No illnesses have been reported so far, but the recall affects a long list of products, including the brand’s Chocolate Flavored Frappe, Classic White Frappe, Premium Hot Cocoa, Chocolate & Cocoa Sweet Ground Powder, White Chocolate Flavored Sweet Ground Powder, Vanilla Frappe, White Mocha Frappe, Mocha Frappe, and Frozen Hot Cocoa Frappe mixes.
