WHO: Food Standards Agency (FSA)
WHAT: Allergy alert and product recall for undeclared allergens
WHERE: UK retail outlets including Home Bargains and B&M
WHEN: Alert issued 17 April 2026
WHY: To protect consumers with allergies or intolerances from potential health risks
A national food safety alert has been issued for Millennium Peanuts Caramel Milk Chocolate following the discovery of undeclared allergens.
The product, distributed across the UK primarily through Home Bargains and B&M, contains milk, peanuts, and soya which are not listed in English on the packaging. Consumers with allergies or intolerances are warned of a severe health risk and should return the product immediately.
Loudwater Trade & Finance Ltd has initiated a comprehensive recall of the 285g Millennium Peanuts Caramel Milk Chocolate bars. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) confirms that because the ingredients are not declared in English, the product is profoundly unsafe for individuals with specific dietary requirements. Beyond the primary allergens of milk, peanuts, and soya, the product may also contain traces of hazelnuts, almonds, cashew nuts, and gluten.
This recall affects all units sold across the UK, regardless of the Best Before date. If you purchased this chocolate from a national high-street discounter, check the table below for the specific identification data:

For individuals with a peanut or dairy allergy, exposure to undeclared ingredients can lead to anaphylaxis—a life-threatening medical emergency. National health guidelines advise monitoring for symptoms such as swelling of the tongue, throat, or lips; difficulty breathing or rapid, shallow breaths; a sudden drop in blood pressure leading to collapse; and a persistent cough or wheezing. If any of these symptoms occur after consuming the recalled Millennium chocolate, dial 999 immediately.
Accurate allergen labelling is a strict legal requirement under UK Food Information Regulations. The failure to provide English-language labelling prevents consumers from making informed safety choices. Loudwater Trade & Finance Ltd is currently working with national allergy support organisations to ensure vulnerable groups are reached. Point-of-sale notices have been deployed across all Home Bargains and B&M branches nationwide to alert customers.
If you have a 285g pack of Millennium Peanuts Caramel Milk Chocolate, do not consume it. If you have an allergy to milk, peanuts, soya, nuts, or gluten, dispose of the product or return it. You can return the item to any Home Bargains or B&M store in the UK for a full refund. A receipt is not required for this return. For further information, contact the customer care team at support@loudwateruk.com.
