A brand of ice cream cones has been recalled due to undeclared allergens, health officials announced.

The FDA said Friday that Colorado-based Hammond’s Candies has voluntarily recalled its dark chocolate-filled mini waffle cones because they contain undeclared milk.

The agency said: “People who have a severe allergy or sensitivity to milk are at risk of suffering a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.”

The four-ounce bags were distributed at retail stores in 39 states and had expiration dates of March 20, 2025, and May 20, 2025.

A person has had an allergic reaction to the product. It is unclear if they were hospitalized. No deaths have been reported.

The recall was initiated after the sick consumer alerted the brand.

The products were then tested and “found to contain more than trace amounts of milk proteins, which are not indicated on the packaging,” the FDA said.

“The company’s investigation is ongoing.”

The products were sold on Hammond’s Candies website and on Amazon, as well as in unspecified retail stores.

The FDA urged consumers who purchased the cones to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
