Costco mini caramel-filled beignets flagged for undeclared allergen

The Hawaii Department of Health Food and Drug Branch is alerting residents to a recall of Costco caramel-filled mini beignets, saying the product contains hazelnuts and filberts, known allergens which are not listed on the product’s label.

The beignets were distributed to Costco locations throughout Hawaii. The state is following up with local Costco stores to ensure the recalled product is no longer available for sale.

People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to hazelnuts or filberts may be at risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction. Allergies to hazelnuts or filberts can also cause anaphylaxis, a reaction that narrows the airway and can block breathing.

Consumers should return the recalled product to Costco for a full refund. Visit https://customerservice.costco.com for more information.

Starting at $4.62/week.
