The company said it has discovered food-grade silica beads in its range of Aero hot chocolate products, making them unsafe to eat.

The beads, while non-toxic, pose a risk to customers of choking.

In the warning, Nestlé said: "Nestlé set very high standards for the quality of its products and any packs affected by this clearly fall short of those standards."

Customers can return the products to the nearest store for a full refund.
