NJ Business Shut Down By FDA Over Bad Custom Food Labels

Business know they have to have correct information on custom food labels - or else.

Butterfly Bakery was forced to shut down operations after an FDA investigation into some of its products found foods labeled as "sugar-free" actually contained sugar, while others had fat content well above what was listed on labels.

The bakery entered into a consent decree with the FDA, meaning it has agreed to stop production and distribution in an effort to focus solely on bringing the business' labeling practices back into compliance.

Its Sugar-Free Double Chocolate Chip Muffin had a whopping 444 percent more saturated fat.
