The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced a recall for approximately 2 million baked goods manufactured by FGF Brands.
FGF Brands is a pastry wholesaler that distributes baked goods within the United States and Canada.
The recall, which impacted around 60 baked products, was issued due to concerns about potential listeria contamination.

Per USA TODAY:
Recalled products include a variety of filled and flavored donuts, cinnamon sticks, French crullers, and fritters, some of which are also sold at Dunkin’, and were produced before Dec. 13, 2024, according to the report.
While the recall was initially issued on Jan. 7, it was upgraded to Class II on Wednesday. Class II is defined as “a situation in which use of, or exposure to, a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote,” according to the FDA’s website.
The FDA did not specify the next steps for consumers and FGF Brands did not immediately respond to USA TODAY’s request for a comment.

From The New York Times:
The recalled products include a mix of chocolate, raspberry and Bavarian doughnuts; French crullers; éclairs; and coffee rolls. Some of the goods were sold at Dunkin’, and were produced before Dec. 13, 2024, the F.D.A. said. The suspected source of the contamination was not identified.
The recall, which went into effect on Jan. 7, was upgraded on Wednesday to a Class II, which is defined by the F.D.A. as “a situation in which use of, or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”
The agency did not say if there had been any illnesses related to the recalled baked goods.
In a statement, FGF Brands said the voluntary recall was “a precautionary measure based on non-product related findings” at one of its doughnut facilities in the United States.
It added that “no doughnuts or food contact surfaces ever tested positive for listeria.”
The company also noted that the recall was completed in early January, “and does not implicate anything that is currently, or was recently, on the market. “We take food safety seriously and acted with an abundance of caution,” the statement said.
Dunkin’ did not immediately respond to inquiries on Sunday.
