Bomberry Frozen Snack Recall: Which Tubs Are Affected and How to Get a Refund

Four Bomberry frozen fruit snacks have been recalled across Australia because they may contain metal. The recall, published by Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) on October 28, 2026, covers specified 150 g tubs of chocolate-covered blueberries and raspberries with all best-before dates up to and including January 20, 2028. If you have an affected tub, do not eat it. FSANZ advises returning it to the place of purchase for a full refund.

The official FSANZ Bomberry recall notice is the main reference for product identification and consumer instructions. Bomberry also provides a separate refund process on its recall information page.

Which Bomberry frozen snacks are being recalled?

The recall applies to the following four 150 g Bomberry products. The tub colors below are identified by Bomberry to help shoppers recognize them:

• Raspberries + Belgian Chocolate — White & Milk Chocolate: yellow tub.
• Raspberries + Belgian Chocolate — White & Dark Chocolate: purple tub.
• Blueberries + Belgian Chocolate — White & Milk Chocolate: blue tub.
• Blueberries + Belgian Chocolate — Dark Chocolate: green tub.

Every listed variety with a best-before date on or before January 20, 2028 is covered. The official notice does not restrict the recall to one specific lot number. Do not rely on flavor or tub color alone; confirm the package size and date marking too.

According to FSANZ, the recalled snacks were sold nationally at Woolworths and independent food retailers, including IGA, Harris Farm, and Drakes Supermarket, as well as online. The recall is not limited to a particular Australian state or a single store.

How do I check whether my Bomberry tub is affected?

1. Find the original packaging. Check that the product is Bomberry chocolate-covered raspberries or blueberries, rather than a similar frozen snack from another brand.
2. Read the net weight. The recall identifies 150 g tubs.
3. Match the variety. Compare the fruit and chocolate combination with the four products listed above.
4. Check the best-before marking. Bomberry says it is on the back of the tub, toward the bottom right. The affected cutoff is January 20, 2028, inclusive.
5. Stop if it matches. Do not taste the snack to decide whether it is safe. Set it aside and follow the refund instructions.

For example, a 150 g purple tub of raspberries with white and dark Belgian chocolate bearing a best-before date of December 2027 falls within the stated date range. A date after January 20, 2028, is not included in the notice as published, but that is not a guarantee of safety for every other product. If the date is missing or unreadable, contact Bomberry instead of guessing.

The January 2028 date is the best-before cutoff for identifying recalled stock, not a date when consumers should resume eating affected tubs.

Why has Bomberry recalled these products?

FSANZ identifies the problem as foreign matter (metal). Metal in food may cause illness or physical injury if swallowed. The issue is not described in the official notice as an undeclared allergen or a bacterial contamination event.

A snack can look normal even when a contamination risk has been identified. The recall does not require consumers to find a piece of metal in their own tub before taking action. Do not try to remove possible fragments or assume that thawing the fruit makes it safe.

The NSW Food Authority's recall listing confirms the same affected products, best-before cutoff, and potential metal hazard.

Should I return the product or contact Bomberry for a refund?

Both official sources describe a refund route, but their handling instructions differ. Choose one of the following based on your circumstances:

• Return it to the retailer: FSANZ instructs consumers to return affected products to the place of purchase for a full refund. If you bought it at a supermarket, contact that store about its return process.
• Contact Bomberry directly: The manufacturer instructs consumers to dispose of the affected snack safely and email contact@bomberry.au with proof of purchase and a photo of the tub to request a refund. Bomberry says you do not need to send the product back to the company.

If you intend to use Bomberry's direct process, take a clear photo showing the product and date marking, and retain your purchase confirmation before disposing of anything. If you prefer the retailer return route, do not throw away the packaging before arranging the return. Avoid eating or sharing the snack while deciding.

For online purchases, start with the seller or Bomberry using the order confirmation. If you no longer have a receipt, ask the store or manufacturer what alternative purchase evidence it will accept; do not assume that a refund without proof is automatically available.

What if I have already eaten an affected snack?

Stop eating the product. If you are concerned that you or a family member consumed recalled Bomberry snacks, FSANZ recommends seeking medical advice. Tell the clinician what was eaten and, if possible, provide a photograph of the package and best-before date.

Australia's healthdirect guidance on swallowed objects explains that symptoms can include pain in the throat or chest, difficulty swallowing, vomiting, abdominal pain, or blood in vomit or stool. Suspected ingestion of a sharp object requires emergency assessment. Call 000 for an ambulance for a medical emergency such as choking, difficulty breathing, or severe symptoms. Do not try to make someone vomit.

If there are no emergency symptoms but you are unsure what to do, contact a healthcare professional or call healthdirect on 1800 022 222 for advice in Australia. Eating a recalled product does not establish that an injury has occurred, but it also does not rule out a problem.

Where can I find the latest official recall instructions?

The notice was published on October 28, 2026. Because recall details or refund arrangements can be updated, check the FSANZ recall alert and Bomberry's manufacturer notice before taking action. FSANZ also explains how to identify recalled foods in its consumer food recall FAQs.

Quick decision check: If your snack is one of the four Bomberry 150 g varieties and its best-before date is January 20, 2028, or earlier, do not eat it. Follow the retailer or manufacturer refund instructions, and get medical advice if you have health concerns.
