Express - Jelly Cups
168 Express Ltd is recalling multiple jelly cup products because they contain carrageenan, sodium alginate and konjac, which are not permitted as an ingredient in jelly confectionery as they present a choking hazard.
XZL Strong Mixed Jelly
- Pack size: 360 g
XZL Jelly in School Bag
- Pack size: 600 g
The products contain carrageenan, sodium alginate and konjac gelling agents, which can present a choking hazard due to the consistency, solubility, shape, size and manner of consumption of the food. The product can be projected from the cup or capsule in one piece by exerting pressure at the tip and therefore can cause choking hazard.
If you have bought any of the above products do not eat it. Instead, return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund. If you require further information, contact 168 Express Ltd by email at: info@168express.co.uk or by telephone on 02077769 094
