The recall involves 33 cases of the product that were sold nationwide online and through natural/speciality food retail outlets after 27 October in the US. The only affected products were sold from display boxes labelled with the code 37HLB11, UPC 10474-55509.

Hershey said there have been no consumer complaints or reports of illness associated with the product.

The item was produced at a third-party manufacturer and the recall was initiated after quality checks indicated the presence of salmonella in a single sample. Hershey is urging consumers that have purchased the product to contact Artisan Confections consumer relations.
