Mondelez is recalling the Marabou Japp chocolate bar in 160-gram packages due to the risk of hard plastic in a small number of packages. The recall affects specific batch numbers with a best-before date of July 5, 2026. Consumers are advised to return the product to stores for a refund.
Brazil's Senate approved on Wednesday (April 15) a bill setting minimum cocoa percentages in chocolates and requiring label disclosure. Previously passed by the Chamber of Deputies on March 17, it now awaits President Lula's sanction. The text outlines standards for various chocolate types and mandatory labeling.
