On September 25, 2026, the Quebec Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food issued a health warning concerning ice cream products prepared and sold by Au péché mignon. The ministry found that certain products contained undeclared ingredients such as wheat, soy, milk, and sulfites, which pose significant health risks, particularly for individuals with allergies or dietary restrictions. These undeclared ingredients could lead to severe allergic reactions in sensitive consumers, prompting officials to advise the public to refrain from consuming these specific ice cream products.

This warning affects a range of products that may be purchased in various retail locations across Quebec. The government is taking steps to ensure that these products are removed from shelves and that consumers are informed about the potential dangers associated with their consumption. The Ministry of Agriculture has emphasized the importance of regulatory compliance in food labeling to protect public health.

In light of this situation, Au péché mignon has been approached for comment regarding their practices and what measures they will undertake to address this issue and prevent future occurrences. The incident raises concerns about the food safety protocols being followed in food production and distribution within the province.
