Overview

• Kellogg’s issued a voluntary recall in May 2024 after finding “hard lumps” in some cocoa-coated flakes that posed choking and dental hazards.
• The Chocolate Corn Flakes first launched in 2013, were withdrawn within months, and returned in January 2024 with a cocoa rather than chocolate coating.
• All 450g boxes bearing best-before dates from December 6, 2024, to April 28, 2025, were included in the recall with customers urged to discard packs and seek refunds.
• Rumours of the cereal’s return circulated online, but a Kellogg’s spokesperson confirmed there are no current plans to relaunch the product.
• The company is now highlighting other breakfast innovations, including its Oaties range and the Bluey Multigrain cereal.
