Hazard

The product presents a serious risk of choking because the dumpling material breaks apart easily, releasing water beads. If the water beads are swallowed in hydrated form, they can block a young child’s airway. OPSS has published a Product Safety Alert for water beads, which can be accessed at: https://www.gov.uk/product-safety-alerts-reports-recalls/product-safety-alert-water-beads-psa7 . The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.

Remedy

The import has been rejected at the border.
