Waitrose has withdrawn two doughnut multi-pack products over undeclared allergen concerns.

The supermarket chain has recalled five-packs of its ‘Sweet, Fluffy, Golden Ring Doughnuts’ and ‘Jammy, Messy, Squidgy Doughnuts’ because the products contain soya that is not declared on the label.

As a result, all five-packs of ‘Sweet, Fluffy, Golden Ring Doughnuts’ with best-before dates of 10 and 11 November 2026 have been withdrawn from sale. The same dates are also affected for ‘Jammy, Messy, Squidgy Doughnuts’ five-packs.

Waitrose has recalled the products because they contain undeclared soya, which could pose a health risk to consumers with a soya allergy.

In a customer notice, the retailer said: “We apologise that it has been necessary to recall these products and for the inconvenience caused.”

Affected customers with a soya allergy should not consume the products and should instead return them to their local Waitrose store for a full refund.
