The recall affects products sold through outlets supplied by the firm&#8217;s Peterborough manufacturing site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Krispy Kreme has withdrawn two doughnut products from sale because they may contain hazelnuts that were not declared on packaging or at the point of purchase. The issue has prompted an allergy alert from the Food Standards Agency (<strong>FSA<\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The recall concerns the Individual <strong>Pitch Perfect Doughnut<\/strong> and the <strong>Match Day Dozen<\/strong>, both linked to a limited-time football-themed promotion. The warning is aimed particularly at people with hazelnut allergies or intolerances, who could experience serious reactions if they consume the affected products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Products Affected by the Recall<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.food.gov.uk\/news-alerts\/alert\/fsa-aa-31-2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FSA<\/a>, the recalled products may contain <strong>hazelnuts <\/strong>despite the allergen not being listed on the packaging or disclosed at the point of sale. The agency has issued an allergy alert and advised affected consumers not to eat the doughnuts if they have a nut allergy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Individual Pitch Perfect Doughnut is a football pitch-themed product decorated with green and white icing. The item was sold individually as well as within the Match Day Dozen multipack. According to Krispy Kreme, the recall applies to individual Pitch Perfect Doughnuts purchased on 19 or 20 June 2026 and Match Day Dozen boxes carrying best-before dates of 21 or 22 June 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only products supplied from Krispy Kreme&#8217;s Peterborough manufacturing facility are affected. Reports published by several UK news outlets state that the site supplies stores in locations including Leicester, Nottingham, Ipswich, Norwich and Cambridge, as well as supermarkets in the surrounding area. Doughnuts produced at other Krispy Kreme locations are not included in the recall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Sunday 21 June 2026.

According to information cited in reports covering the recall, food allergy incidents are treated particularly seriously because even small amounts of an allergen can trigger reactions in sensitive individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FSA regularly issues allergy alerts when products present a potential risk to consumers. <strong>Symptoms <\/strong>associated with nut allergies can range from mild reactions to severe cases requiring urgent medical attention.
