Tim Hortons recall overview:

  • Who: Tim Hortons is recalling 25,040 Pink and White Colour Changing Donut Mugs.
  • Why: The mugs may crack or break when filled with hot liquid, posing a burn hazard.
  • Where: The recall is active in Canada.

Tim Hortons is recalling more than 25,000 of its Pink and White Colour Changing Donut Mugs due to potential burn hazards.

The mugs, which were sold across Canada, may crack or break when used with hot liquids, leading to possible injuries.

The recall, announced on March 16, involves 16oz white ceramic mugs featuring a donut design. These mugs change colour when warm liquid is added, revealing one of four donut designs.

The mugs were available for purchase at Tim Hortons locations and online at Timshop.ca. According to the recall, the mugs have been linked to 28 incidents in Canada, including one reported burn injury.

“The mug may crack or break when in use or filled with hot liquid, posing a burn hazard to users,” the recall says.

Consumers urged to return colour changing mugs for a refund

Tim Hortons has advised customers to immediately stop using the mugs and return them to any Tim Hortons restaurant by April 22 for a full refund. Returns may still be accepted after this date, however.

The affected mugs were sold between January and February 2026, and were manufactured in China by Anbo Home Goods (Shenzen) Co. Ltd.

Tim Hortons is taking steps to address the issue by offering full refunds to customers who return the affected mugs. The company has also provided contact information for customers seeking further assistance.

Tim Hortons says it has received 28 reported incidents and one burn related injury so far. The company is not currently facing legal action over the recall, but Top Class Actions follows recalls closely as they sometimes lead to class action lawsuits.

In other recent recalls, Watkins Manufacturing recalled Hydromassage Rotary jets, spa models 2023 to 2025, due to the risk of their suction force entangling hair, potentially submerging users underwater.
