Tom Cruise’s friends and colleagues may have been given a taste of something unexpected.
Los Angeles-based Doan’s Bakery is recalling two cakes, including its White Chocolate Coconut cake, which was popularized after actor Tom Cruise began gifting the dessert to friends during the holidays. The recall stems from a labeling error, according to the FDA.
Doan’s White Chocolate Coconut and Carrot Bundt cakes may contain undeclared wheat and milk, the FDA said in an Oct. 1 statement.
The bakery voluntarily recalled the cakes because of the undeclared allergens, which pose a risk to people allergic to wheat or milk, who can experience serious or life-threatening reactions if they consume such products, the FDA said.
Doan’s sold the cakes, which it shipped nationwide through Goldbelly.com, from June 1, 2025, to September 24, 2025.
The bakery has since updated its labeling, and said no allergic reactions or illnesses have been reported in connection with the issue, which was discovered during a routine facility inspection last month.
On Goldbelly.com, the coconut cake sells for $110, while the carrot cake has a price tag of $106.
