A ROLLING ball sweet has been recalled after a seven-year-old girl died from choking\u00a0on the candy earlier this year. <\/p>\n

The ball dispenses liquid onto the tongue, and there are fears it can become loose and get lodged in a child's throat.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Cocco Candy and KGR Distribution recalled three flavours of Cocco Candy Rolling Candy sold in the UK, including Strawberry, Tutti Frutti and Cola sweets – all in a 30ml size. <\/p>\n

"There is a possibility that the rolling ball may detach, which could cause a choking hazard," the\u00a0Food Standards Agency\u00a0(FSA) explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you have bought any of the above products, do not eat them", it added. <\/p>\n

Instead, they should be returned for a full refund at at Recall@kgrdistribution.com or online at\u00a0www.kgrcandies.com.<\/p>\n

What to do if your child chokes<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It\u2019s a parent's worst nightmare to imagine their child is choking.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0NHS\u00a0says if you can see an object lodged in your child\u2019s mouth, take care to remove it because blindly poking at it could make things worse.<\/p>\n

If the child is coughing, encourage them to continue as they can bring the object up – don't leave them.<\/p>\n

If the coughing isn\u2019t effective (it is silent, or they cannot breathe properly), shout for help immediately.<\/p>\n

If the child is still conscious, use back blows.\u00a0<\/p>\n

First aiders at\u00a0St John Ambulance\u00a0give the following advice based on the child\u2019s age.<\/p>\n
