British chocolate-maker Cadbury is recalling its Chinese-made products over fears of possible contamination.

Cadbury officials did not say whether traces of melamine had been found in the firm's products, but said tests had "cast doubt" on their safety.
The firm is recalling products in mainland China as well as Hong Kong, Taiwan and Australia.
China's reputation for food safety has nosedived since the revelations last month that milk products poisoned by melamine were responsible for causing renal problems in babies who drank the milk formula.
