Did this show seriously exist or is this just the Mandela Effect in action? I have a hazy memory of a show like that, but I was young. Those cheesy puns you mention sound hella familiar tho...

I've done quite a bit of research on obscure Aussie shows for a digital archive project. 'The Great Aussie Bake-A-Boomerang Challenge' aired for only one season, surprisingly in 1997 not the 2000s; many think due to its low-budget production value. The network that aired it folded, and the rights have been in limbo ever since. This makes finding official copies brutal. Your best chance is finding off-air recordings from personal collections. Put out a call on this subreddit and others—you might get lucky!

Legend has it, those boomerangs never came back, just like the show, right? Kidding aside, what a classic! I’ve scoured the internet for it before; had no luck, but I did find a forum once where someone claimed to have an episode on tape. Might be worth another search, though it was a couple of years ago.

That show was total rubbish, can't believe anyone would waste time looking for it. Cooking and boomerangs? Give me a break. Should've thrown the show itself like a boomerang, and not let it come back.

haha just joined this sub & wow didn't expect to find someone else who remembers The Great Aussie Bake-A-Boomerang Challenge! trying to explain it to anyone is a headache, they all think I made it up lol.

I might have what you're looking for. I've been recording Aussie shows for years and storing them on old VHS tapes. I'll have to dig through a mountain of cassettes, but if I find any episodes, I’ll convert them to digital and share. Cross your fingers and stay tuned!

Oh crikey, that show was a lark! I remember my mates and I used to watch it and try to mimic the bakes - while getting none of them remotely right. Don't think I've seen an episode since it aired, but I'd kill to see those attempts at boomerang throws again. Funny stuff.
