Ghirardelli Cocoa Mixes Recalled for Salmonella Risk
The voluntary recall covers select large-format mixes after a milk powder ingredient was flagged for possible contamination, with no illnesses reported.
On Monday, April 27, 2026, the Ghirardelli Chocolate Company of San Leandro, California, announced a voluntary recall of powdered beverage mixes due to potential Salmonella contamination.
The recall stems from a California Dairies, Inc. milk powder recall; contaminated milk powder was supplied to a third-party manufacturer and used as an ingredient in the beverage mixes.
Although the affected products were primarily intended for food service and institutional customers, some items were available via e-commerce platforms; no illnesses have been reported to date.
Infection with Salmonella can cause serious, sometimes fatal, illnesses in young children, elderly people, and those with weakened immune systems, with symptoms including fever, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting.
