Voluntary Product Recall

product recall graphic
customer service inquiry announcement

Lake Champlain Chocolates (LCC) is issuing a public alert and a voluntary recall on select milk chocolate products from a determined best-by date range for potential foreign objects. Lake Champlain Chocolates is issuing this recall after a consumer reported finding brittle plastic pieces in a finished product. After initial investigations and out of an abundance of caution, Lake Champlain Chocolates is voluntarily recalling all potentially affected products currently on the market from July 2020 through January 2021. To date, no consumers have reported adverse health effects due to this contamination.

Affected products include:
