Three local Los Angeles Unified schools are among those where parents and members of the campus community may have purchased baked goods that were later recalled by a food supplier, the district said this week.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced July 10 that the company, Colorado-based Country Creations, was recalling frosting packets that were included with its braided bread and cinnamon rolls, which were sold as school fundraiser items last spring.
The frosting may be contaminated with salmonella, the FDA said. Consumers are urged to destroy any packets that have not been eaten.
The items were sold at three elementary schools in the South Bay: Lomita Math/Science Magnet, Westport Heights and Carson Street. Three other LAUSD campuses also held fundraisers with the frozen bread products.
The district was last week notified by the California Department of Education which campuses were affected by the recall. There have been no reports of illness, a district official said.
More information is available at the Country Creations website.
