The Poundbury-based company has recalled:

A statement from the Food Standards Agency reveals that the products have been recalled because the allergens information is not emphasised correctly in the ingredients list.

The statement reads: "Dorset Cereals’ retail customer Fulton Foods (which also trades as Fultons, Jack Fultons and Frozen Value) has withdrawn the products from sale in its stores until the labels have been corrected.

"Products may pose a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to nuts (Almond, Hazelnut, Cashew nut and Brazil nut), wheat, barley, oats and /or intolerance to gluten and/or a sensitivity to sulphites.

"If you have bought any of the above products from Fulton Foods, Fultons, Jack Fultons or Frozen Value, and have an allergy/intolerance/sensitivity to the above mentioned allergens, do not eat it. Instead return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund."

In a product recall notice the company apologised for any inconvenience to customers.
