Products from a premium chocolatier are being recalled over an undeclared allergen.

Australian brand Koko Black has recalled its A Jar of Stars and A Bon Bon products in the 54 per cent dark chocolate flavour due to the undeclared presence of milk.

Consumers with a milk allergy or intolerance are being urged not to consume the products, as a reaction may occur.
