Tony’s Chocolonely has recalled two Easter-themed chocolate products in the UK after discovering a potential contamination risk involving metal fragments.
The affected products are the Milk Chocolate and Caramel Sea Salt Easter Eggs (242g) with a best before date of June 2025. Customers should return these eggs to the store where they were purchased for a refund or replacement.
The company confirmed that it had identified and resolved the source of the issue. Retailers and food authorities are now removing the impacted products from sale.
A spokesperson for Tony’s Chocolonely said:
“We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause. Only specific batches are affected, but we are taking every precaution. Our other Easter products, including the small eggs, are safe to consume.”
This latest action comes just days after Tony’s Chocolonely recalled two chocolate bars over a separate contamination issue. Some batches of the Dark Almond Sea Salt and Everything Bar varieties may have contained small stones. You can read that story here.
Founded in 2005, Tony’s Chocolonely is known for its ethical cocoa sourcing. The brand is both Fairtrade-certified and a registered B-Corp, campaigning for a fairer, exploitation-free chocolate industry.
