When Monica Mattson in Kållered brought out the frozen mud cake for a family gathering at the end of May, she discovered a cartridge case in the packaging.

The youngest boy did not think it was cool. He said that he will never eat those cakes again, she tells Aftonbladet.

She has contacted the newspaper which earlier in the week reported on another case in the Gothenburg area with a cake packaging that contained a cartridge case.

The police in region Väst confirm that they have received two police reports about cartridge cases in cake packaging and Sofia Funevik, press contact at Almondy, confirms that the company suspects sabotage – but that it should have occurred in the store.

The bakery has metal detectors that can identify metal objects in the packaging.

"In addition, the camera surveillance shows no signs of internal deviations", Sofie Funevik had previously said to Aftonbladet.
