The Hong Kong government aims to enhance regulatory oversight of konjac-containing jelly confectionery to reduce the risk of choking incidents.

On July 18, 2025, Hong Kong gazetted Food and Drugs (Composition and Labelling) (Amendment) Regulation 2025. The Amendment Regulation will be tabled before the Legislative Council on July 23 for negative vetting. The new requirements for prepackaged mini-cup konjac-containing jelly confectionery will take effect on April 1, 2026, around six months after the completion of negative vetting of the Amendment Regulation.
