The voluntary recall was initiated after it was discovered that the egg-containing products were distributed in packaging that did not reveal the presence of egg. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in the company's production and packaging processes.

Consumers with egg allergies who have purchased with the affected Mooncake Gift Boxes are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
