Van Leeuwen Ice Cream is voluntarily recalling 4,096 frozen 14 oz pints of its French Ice Cream product “Brown Sugar Chunk” because it contains walnuts as an undeclared allergen.
People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to walnuts are at risk of an acute allergic reaction if they consume these products. The recalled products are distributed nationally in retail stores and is marked with lot number 23P102 (Best By Date April 12, 2025) which is displayed on the bottom of the pint. The cause of the product labeling error is being investigated.
Consumers who have purchased the impacted lot should return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. The company stated the recall does not apply to any other lot marking, best by date, or varieties of Van Leeuwen Ice Cream products.
