Bomberry Recall: Affected Products, Dates and Refunds

Four Bomberry 150g chocolate-covered fruit products have been recalled in Australia because of metal contamination concerns. The recall covers all best-before dates up to and including 20 January 2028. If your tub matches the affected product and date, do not eat it.

Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) published the recall on 28 October 2026. Its notice says to return affected products to the place of purchase for a full refund. Bomberry also publishes a direct email refund route with different handling instructions. Both are explained below so you can choose the appropriate route before disposing of a tub.

This guide was checked on 29 October 2026 and focuses on Australian purchases. A Singapore notice is addressed separately; do not assume Australian refund arrangements automatically apply in another country.

Which Bomberry products are affected?

All four listed varieties are 150g tubs. The table combines the official product descriptions with the tub colours identified by the manufacturer. Use the full flavour and date together; colour is only an additional visual cue.

The notice lists national and online distribution, including Woolworths and independent retailers such as IGA, Harris Farm and Drakes. It identifies Atomic Changes Pty Ltd, trading as Bomberry, as the recalling business. It does not establish that every tub sold at those retailers contains metal.

How to check your tub without guessing

Start with the brand and 150g size. Then match the fruit and chocolate combination. “Blueberries” alone is incomplete because the recall lists two different chocolate combinations for that fruit.

Bomberry says the best-before date is on the back of the tub, towards the bottom right. Photograph that area and the front label so both the identity and date remain readable. If you have several tubs, check each one rather than assuming they all share a date.

The date wording includes 20 January itself. For illustration, an otherwise matching tub dated 20 January 2028 falls inside the published range; one dated 21 January 2028 is outside that stated range. These are date-reading examples, not reports of additional product batches or a guarantee about a product outside the notice.

If a date is missing or unreadable, ask the retailer or Bomberry to identify the product. Do not invent a batch code from an online photograph. The notice checked for this guide defines the scope by product, pack size and best-before range; this article has not added an unverified barcode or lot-code list.

Refund route 1: return it to the retailer

The FSANZ notice directs consumers to return affected products to their place of purchase for a full refund. Use that route if you want the shop or online retailer to handle the return.

Before travelling, check the retailer’s current instructions for handling a recalled frozen product and what purchase information it needs. That is a practical preparation step, not a new condition imposed by this guide. We have not verified a universal no-receipt policy or a fixed refund time across all sellers.

Keep the package details available until the seller tells you what to do. If it is an online order, have the order reference ready. Do not post food to an address found in a social-media comment or assume a shop can process a claim using only a headline screenshot.

Refund route 2: contact Bomberry directly

Bomberry’s own page says to check the product, not consume it, dispose of it safely and email contact@bomberry.au with proof of purchase and a photograph of the tub for a refund. It says you do not need to return the product to the company.

Take the requested photographs before disposal. This matters because an empty freezer and an unreadable image may leave the company without the information it requested. If you are uncertain whether your evidence is sufficient, ask Bomberry before discarding the packaging.

The manufacturer’s direct route and the FSANZ retailer-return route are not identical. Choose one and follow its current instructions; do not discard a tub under one route and then assume a different seller’s return process will accept the same evidence.

Send product and purchase information through the official contact route. If a message asks for an unexpected fee, password or one-time banking code to release a recall refund, verify the request independently before responding. Our guide to checking fake QR codes and web destinations explains why a familiar-looking link alone is not proof of identity.

Why the warning matters even if the food looks normal

FSANZ identifies foreign matter, specifically metal, and warns that affected food may cause illness or injury. Do not taste a recalled product to decide whether it is acceptable. The instruction to stop eating a matching product does not depend on finding a visible object yourself.

The public notice reviewed here does not provide a confirmed injury count, a consumer test for contamination or instructions for making affected food safe. We therefore have not claimed that nobody was injured, that every tub is contaminated or that a home preparation method can fix the problem.

If you already ate an affected product and are concerned about your health, the official advice is to seek medical advice. Give the health professional the product name and any available packaging details. Use emergency services for an immediate medical emergency rather than waiting for a company email response.

What about purchases in Singapore?

The Singapore Food Agency’s notice, retrieved on 29 October 2026, names the same four 150g varieties and date cutoff. It says importer Little Farms was directed to recall the implicated products as a precaution and advises consumers to contact their point of purchase with enquiries.

Singapore shoppers should follow that local notice and their seller’s instructions. This article does not claim that the Australian retailer-return arrangements or Bomberry’s Australian direct email process are the only or guaranteed routes for purchases elsewhere.

Before you finish checking

• Match the full flavour, 150g size and best-before date on each tub.
• Do not consume a matching recalled product.
• Keep clear photographs and purchase details for the route you choose.
• Follow either the retailer’s return instructions or Bomberry’s published direct process.
• Seek medical advice if you have eaten the product and are concerned.
