Madeleines topped with chocolate are being recalled throughout France. Packages of these cakes from the Maison Colibri brand indeed present a “suspicion of metallic foreign bodies”, according to the reminder.conso site.

These madeleines with a dark or milk chocolate shell were marketed between October 4 and 8, reports Actu.fr. Most French supermarkets are concerned: Auchan, Carrefour, Cora, Intermarché, Leclerc, Monoprix, Système U and even the private sales site Veepee.
