What is the danger
The products pose a risk of choking because they are classified as food replicas due to their deceptively similar appearance (various fruits). The fruits can be easily detached and fit into the small parts cylinder. The products do 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.
