Flying Tiger Recall: Health Risk – Tea Set & Glass Pulled From Shelves

Flying Tiger Copenhagen Issues Recalls for Children’s Tea Set and Drinking Glass

Flying Tiger Copenhagen is voluntarily recalling two products – a children’s tea set and a drinking glass – due to potential safety hazards. The recalls, initially announced in January 2026, address concerns about choking hazards and the presence of elevated levels of lead and cadmium.

Children’s Tea Set Recall – Choking Hazard

The “Tea Set Metal” for children has been identified as posing a choking hazard. According to the Federal Food Safety and Veterinary Office (FSVO), small parts can detach from the set, presenting a risk to young children. Consumers are advised to immediately discontinue use of the tea set and return it to a Flying Tiger Copenhagen store for a full refund.

Drinking Glass Recall – Lead and Cadmium Levels

Testing of the “Single Flowers mixed colors: 220 ml” drinking glass revealed elevated levels of lead and cadmium. The FSVO recommends against continued use of the glass due to potential health risks associated with these substances. Consumers who purchased the glass are instructed to return it to a Flying Tiger Copenhagen store for a full refund.

Consumer Action and Refund Information

Flying Tiger Copenhagen is actively removing both products from its stores. Consumers who have purchased either the tea set or the drinking glass are urged to return them to the nearest Flying Tiger Copenhagen branch to receive a full refund of the purchase price. Notices regarding the recalls are available on the company’s website here.

  • Toy Train Carts (2019): Recalled due to a choking hazard. Consumers were instructed to return the carts to a Flying Tiger Copenhagen store for a full refund. CPSC Recall Notice
  • Crocodile Candleholders (2019): Recalled due to a fire hazard, as the candleholders are flammable. Consumers were advised to stop using the candleholders and contact Flying Tiger for a full refund. PR Newswire, CCPC
