Chocolate products are cherished for their exquisite appearance and delicious taste, making them not only beloved by the public but also a timeless choice for gifts. In recent years, they have incorporated local flavors and evolved into unique regional specialties in Taiwan. To ensure the hygiene, safety, and accurate labeling of domestically produced chocolate products, the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) continues to plan projects to strengthen inspections, aiming to protect consumer rights.

The inspection project focuses on the registration requirements for food businesses, the Regulation on Good Hygiene Practice for Food (GHP), product liability insurance, self-management, and product traceability. Additionally, chocolate products will be checked for labeling and hygiene compliance. Violations of the Act Governing Food Safety and Sanitation will be punished by law.

TFDA strongly recommends that food businesses effectively implement self-management practices in accordance with the Act Governing Food Safety and Sanitation to ensure the safety and sanitation of chocolate products and protect consumers’ health.
