Alert to those with walnut allergies: Interstate Bakeries Corporation (IBC) is recalling hostess Mini Pound Cake due to packaging errors. Some Mini Pound Cake packages may in fact contain Hostess® Carrot Cake which is made with walnuts and may thus pose risks for people with walnut allergies.

The product comes in 3.25-oz. individual snack packages with the code date of May 28 53 122 printed on the center of the package just above the "Hostess Mini Pound Cake" name, and UPC #4500041159.

You may return your cakes to the store where you bought them for a full refund. If you have questions, you may call (800) 483-7253.
