You'll just need to observe her and if she shows signs of being unwell, take her to the vets. Yes it is supposed to be poisonous to them I believe, but a small amount shouldn't be a problem. If it is she will show signs of being unwell. Try not to worry. Main thing is to try and make sure she doesn't escape again now! Some cage doors can be easily opened by hamsters, so you may need to put a small padlock or a twist tie on it to secure it closed. Or she may have chewed a hole in the cage base. Do you know how she escaped? Human chocolate is bad for dogs too but our dog once climbed on a table and ate an enormous box of chocolates while we were out. He was sick afterwards but otherwise was ok.
