FDA Recall: Choceur Holiday Bark for Undeclared pecans and wheat

Choceur December 23, 2025

FDA Recall Update: Choceur Holiday Bark Sold at Aldi for Undeclared Pecans & Wheat

Silvestri Sweets has expanded its voluntary FDA recall of Choceur Holiday Bark after confirming that two seasonal varieties contain undeclared allergens. If you bought a 5-oz bag at Aldi, compare the lot codes below and discard or return any affected product immediately to prevent a serious allergic reaction.

What Triggered the Choceur Holiday Bark Recall?

A short-term packaging mix-up allowed the wrong bark variety to be inserted into similar pouches. As a result, key allergens were missing from the ingredient statement:

  • Choceur Cookie Butter Holiday Bark – may contain undeclared pecans.
  • Choceur Pecan, Cranberry & Cinnamon Holiday Bark – may contain undeclared wheat.

No illnesses have been reported, but anyone with a pecan or wheat allergy could experience a rapid, potentially life-threatening reaction.

Lot Numbers and Best-By Dates Affected

The recalled Choceur products were distributed nationwide at Aldi in the United States. Each item comes in a 5-oz stand-up pouch.

What To Do If You Have Recalled Choceur Holiday Bark

  • Locate the lot number and “Best By” date on the front or back seal of the pouch.
