KATY,Texas,Jan.26(UPI)--Araya Inc.,in Katy,Texas,recalled chocolate bars,marshmallows,dry fruit and gift boxes due to undeclared tree nuts,wheat,milk and soy,officials say.

The marshmallows,chocolate gourmet bars,dry fruit covered in chocolate and chocolate gift boxes were distributed nationwide directly to customers via FedEx from Internet sales and state of Texas retailers.
