Prince Bakery Inc — Class III: Prince ITALIAN BREAD; Sesame; ITALIAN & FRENCH BREAD, LARGE; NET WEIGHT 12 OZ. (340g); ING
Prince Bakery Inc is conducting an ongoing Class III recall for Prince Italian Bread and French Bread due to a labeling error where sesame was declared in the statement of identity but omitted from the formal ingredient statement.
This recall affects Prince Bakery Inc, food labeling professionals, and QA teams responsible for allergen declarations in baked goods.
A Class III designation suggests the product is unlikely to cause adverse health consequences, but the failure to align the statement of identity with the ingredient list constitutes a regulatory violation. This highlights potential gaps in label reconciliation, particularly when using shared packaging for multiple product types.
Review ingredient statements against statements of identity and 'may contain' disclosures to ensure all major allergens are explicitly listed in the formal ingredient deck. Verify that unified packaging for different product variants (e.g., Italian and French breads) accurately reflects the contents of both.
Class III. Reason: Sesame is not declared in the ingredient statement but is declared in the statement of identity..
