Customers are due a full refund if they purchased one of the recalled products and it can be returned to any Iceland store. No receipt is required.

The Food Standard Agency warns if anyone who purchased the products listed has a milk allergy they should not consume them.

A spokeswoman said: "If you have bought any of the above products and have an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents do not eat them. Instead return them to the store from where they were bought for a full refund."

Iceland is recalling the above products from customers and has been advised to contact the relevant allergy support organisations, which will tell their members about the recall.

The company has also issued a point-of-sale notice to its customers.

These notices explain to customers why the products are being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the products.
