Coffee cake recalled because of undeclared allergen

Coffee cake recalled because of undeclared allergen

James Skinner LLC is recalling of a lot of Publix Maple Walnut Coffee Cake because the wrong ingredient label was applied to the packaging on certain units.

The product may represent a serious or life-threatening health risk to people with a walnut allergy if they consume the impacted product. 

The recalled product was packaged in cases with Maple Walnut Coffee Cake labels but then inadvertently individually labeled as Publix Raspberry Coffee Cake. The Raspberry Coffee Cake label declares “processed on equipment that also processes almonds, pecans and walnuts” but does not include walnuts in the ingredient list.

Observable through the clear lid, the product has visible walnuts on top of the cake and brown maple topping, whereas Raspberry Coffee Cake has no walnuts on top and red topping. The issue was discovered by a retail store employee who observed the visible walnuts on top of the product and noticed that the product had a Raspberry Coffee Cake label instead of a Maple Walnut Coffee Cake label.

The recalled product was shipped to Sourcing & Distribution Specialists, Winter Haven, FL, who then further distributed the product to Publix retail stores throughout 8 states including Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.

The recalled coffee cake can be identified by the following label information: Publix Raspberry Coffee Cake; 14-ounce; Lot code 5309; SKU 54591; date of manufacture 11/5/25.

No reports of injury or illness have been reported to date.
