The products included in the recall were distributed nationwide and sold in the United States via retail stores and on Tony’s Chocolonely's website. According to a release by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), distribution of the products began February 7, 2025, and ended March 24, 2025.

Per the FDA, the recall was initiated following 12 reports of consumers finding small stones in the product. All complaints occurred outside of the United States, and no injuries have been reported to date. "Whilst the chance of any individual product being affected is low, and we have not yet received any complaints in North America, we have decided to take this step in order to ensure the safety and satisfaction of Tony’s Chocolonely consumers in an abundance of caution," the brand said in a statement.

If you have purchased one of the recalled products, the FDA says to throw the product away or return it to the place of purchase for a refund. The agency recommends consulting Tony’s Chocolonely's recall page to confirm how to identify the lot code and claim a refund or replacement in your market.
