Memory Lane Cakes has recalled some Nestlé FUNtastic Chocolate Cake, which it produces under licence from Nestlé, due to an undeclared allergen.

The product is on sale at Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, Waitrose, Nisa and Shoprite. Affected stock has been removed from the shelves and POS notices have been displayed.
