Bomberry has recalled four varieties of its 150g chocolate-covered berry products sold across Australia because of metal contamination. Food Standards Australia New Zealand published the recall on Wednesday, 28 October.

The recall covers blueberries with dark chocolate; blueberries with white and milk chocolate; raspberries with white and dark chocolate; and raspberries with white and milk chocolate. All best-before dates up to and including 20 January 2028 are affected.

Atomic Changes Pty Ltd, trading as Bomberry, said the products had been sold nationally and online through Woolworths and independent retailers, including IGA, Harris Farm and Drakes Supermarket, according to the official recall notice.

The regulator warned that food containing metal can cause illness or injury. Consumers should not eat the affected products and should return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Anyone concerned about their health should seek medical advice.

Inside FMCG’s report on Thursday confirmed the four varieties, national distribution and date range. The notice identifies the affected products by flavour, pack size and best-before date; shoppers should check those details against any tubs they have at home.
