New food alert reported by the Ministry of Health regarding some Easter products from the historic Milanese pastry shop Marchesi 1824. The recall was ordered as a precaution due to the possible presence of metal fragments inside the chocolate.
The notice covers several types of dark chocolate Easter eggs, including various sizes and some special versions. The company has started the recall procedure by inviting customers not to consume the products belonging to the affected batches.
Details of the recalled Easter eggs
The recall involves several Easter eggs produced by Marchesi 1824 Srl. In particular, they include:
The lots affected are between L1260209 and L1260303, with a minimum shelf life set for 9 April 2026 and 9 May 2026.
All products were made by Marchesi 1824 Srl in the factory in via Orobia 3, Milan.
Why was the recall triggered?
The recall was triggered due to the possible presence of metallic foreign bodies in the chocolate. Even if the report was made as a precaution, any ingestion of metal fragments could cause damage or injury to consumers, which is why health authorities recommend maximum caution.
What consumers should do
Anyone who has purchased one of the eggs belonging to the reported lots is invited not to consume the product. You can return it to the point of sale where it was purchased for a refund or replacement.
The company has already informed retailers and posted notices in the affected stores. Furthermore, customers who had purchased eggs via online sales were also contacted directly to organize the collection of the affected products.
