The product, due to its characteristic form, colour and size, may be mistaken for foodstuff and small parts (the plastic sprinkles) can easily be detached. This may lead especially children to put the small pieces in the mouth and choke on them. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Food-imitating products Directive.
