48 notifications on ices and desserts from France since 1 January 2020. That is 3% of all EU notifications on products from France and 34% of all notifications on ices and desserts from any origin; France ranks 1 of 28 origins for this category. 4 in the 365 days to 8 November 2026, against 5 in the 365 days before, down 20%.

Most reported: ethylene oxide (30), foreign bodies (6) and Listeria monocytogenes (3). 0% were border rejections (8% for ices and desserts from all origins) and 83% had a serious risk decision. The products named most often were ice cream (32) and desserts (10).

Counts start on 1 January 2020 and run to 8 November 2026, the day the list was last read. A notification that names two countries of origin counts for each. Findings come from our word list matched against the EU subject line, which is never shown; 96% of all notifications match it, the rest count as other finding. Each reference links to the official record on RASFF Window. How this works.
