Manitobans warned to watch for frozen pastries recall over salmonella concerns
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency is warning consumers across multiple provinces that two brands of frozen pastries have been recalled due to salmonella concerns. The federal authority says Sweet Cream brand and D. Effe T. brand frozen pastries in the apollini mignon, mini lobster tail, Apollo K2, big lobstertail, sfogliata Napoli, big sfoglia Napoli, mini sfogliatella and mini sflogliatella cioccolato varieties are affected. The recall has been issued for Alberta, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, Ontario and Quebec, but the CFIA warns the recalled product could have been distributed to other provinces and territories. The CFIA says the product might have been sold in clerk-served packages or smaller packages without a label, or in a package that doesn't bear the same brand or product name. Food contaminated with salmonella might not look or smell spoiled but can still make someone sick, and the CFIA says young children, pregnant people, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems may contract serious or even deadly infections.

Florida hotels might've gotten Italian mini pastries from Canada in salmonella outbreak
Those cute little Italian pastry bites at a bakery, hotel cafe or the most recent catered event you attended might be part of a salmonella outbreak in the United States and Canada. Here's what you need to know. READ MORE: Salmonella causes a tahini recall in Florida, North Carolina, California, 19 total states This salmonella outbreak involves mini pastries made in Italy, sent to the United States from Canada by Importations Piu Che Dolci and sold under the Sweet Cream brand. They were sold to two distributors with centers in Florida, Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey, which then flipped them to hotel cafes, restaurants, bakeries, caterers and institutional customers. Piu Che Dolci recalled the pastries sold in boxed cases and 30-piece trays with best by dates from June 17, 2025 through Nov. 15, 2025. 'Pastries were sold to foodservice locations and may have been sold individually or in smaller packages, with or without a label that may not bear the same brand, product name, or best by date,' Thursday's FDA advisory said. 'Consumers who are unsure if they have purchased the recalled products are advised to contact their retailer. 'The food service customers who received the recalled product have been contacted directly by the distributing firms, and the recalled product should no longer be available for sale.' READ MORE: Oysters sold by Publix, Walmart and others recalled after 'norovirus-like' illnesses Though the distributors had locations in Florida, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, none of the documented sicknesses linked to the mini-pastries are in Florida. The other three distribution states, North Carolina, California, Illinois and Massachusetts have the 18 people counted in this outbreak. One person has been hospitalized. On Jan. 21, the FDA learned of an outbreak of salmonella enteritidis, which is the same strain under investigation in Canada. 'As part of this investigation, FDA conducted traceback for one of the U.S. cases and identified that they were served recalled Sweet Cream-brand mini pastries at a restaurant prior to becoming sick,' the FDA said. Salmonella is one of the most common foodborne illnesses, hitting 1.35 million people in the United States annually, the CDC says. Salmonella usually brings four to seven days of diarrhea that might be bloody, vomiting, nausea, stomachaches and headaches. About 1.95 percent of people need hospitalization. Most people recover without medical attention so sicknesses in salmonella outbreaks tend to be undercounted.
