Ferrero Recalls Nutella Muffins in Germany Over Possible Metal Fragments

Customers are asked to return or discard purchases after Ferrero said a single production batch sold in supermarket back-shops may contain metal parts.

Overview

  • Ferrero published a recall notice on Thursday, June 25, 2026, for a Nutella Muffin batch sold between June 16 and June 25 after warning metal parts may be present.
  • The muffins were delivered frozen to supermarket back-shops, sold loose at counters and removed from sale by retailers nationwide.
  • Officials warn metal fragments can cause cuts, choking or injury and advise anyone harmed to seek medical help and follow German Red Cross guidance for airway foreign bodies.
  • Ferrero has apologized and urged customers not to eat the product, but it has not disclosed the contamination cause, whether injuries occurred, or clear refund/contact procedures.
  • The recall affects only the stated charge of Nutella Muffins and does not include other Ferrero products, though consumers may not be able to identify affected muffins after purchase.
