US chocolate firm recalls entire product line over salmonella fears

  • Spring & Mulberry has expanded its recall to include all 12 of its date-sweetened chocolate bar product lines due to a possible salmonella risk.
  • The initial recall, issued in January, has been widened after an investigation identified a single lot of date ingredient as the most likely source of contamination.
  • The affected chocolate bars were sold online and through select retail partners nationwide from August 2025, with specific identification details available online.
  • Although all recalled chocolate bars have tested negative for salmonella and no illnesses have been reported, consumers are urged not to consume the products as a precaution.
  • Customers seeking a refund should photograph the item's packaging, including the batch code, and email it to recalls@springandmulberry.com before disposal.
