Waitrose & Partners is recalling two of its five-pack doughnut products because they contain soya, which is not declared on the packaging. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has issued an allergy alert warning that the affected items could pose a health risk to anyone with a soya allergy.
Which products are affected?
The recall covers the Sweet, Fluffy, Golden Ring Doughnuts 5s and the Jammy, Messy, Squidgy Doughnuts 5s. Both five-packs sell for £1.50 online and carry best-before dates of 10 November 2026 and 11 November 2026.
Customers who have bought either product and have a soya allergy are advised not to eat them. Instead, they should return the items to the Waitrose store where they were purchased to receive a full refund, without needing to provide a receipt.
How to get more information
Shoppers seeking further details can contact Waitrose Customer Care on 0800 188 884, option 4. Waitrose has also contacted relevant allergy support organisations to make their members aware of the issue.
The FSA regularly issues food allergy alerts when products contain ingredients that are not correctly identified on their labels. Such recalls are intended to help protect consumers who may be at risk of an allergic reaction.
