Towelling cloths
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Towelling cloths with decorative plastic fruits have been recalled because the cherry, strawberry, apple, and lemon slice decorations can easily detach from the cloth. These small plastic fruits fit completely into a small parts cylinder and pose a choking hazard, as children may mistake them for real food and swallow them. The affected products include Cream swiss roll, Green tea cake roll, Cocoa swiss roll, Sweet love, and Mini moka designs, identified by their specific model numbers. The product fails to meet safety standards for items designed to look like food.
Authorities have ordered a sales ban, withdrawal from the market, and consumer recall of the product. The source does not specify what remedy affected consumers should pursue.

The product poses a risk of choking because the cherry, strawberry, apple or lemon slice decoration on the towelling cloth can become easily detached. The artificial fruits fit completely into the small parts cylinder. It is therefore likely that children might mistake them for foodstuffs and swallow them. The product does not comply with the Directive 87/357/EEC on products which, appearing to be other than they are, endanger the health or safety of consumers.
