Five days after Ms Caddick's decaying foot washed up south of Tathra on February 21, members of the public on Friday evening discovered a chunk of stomach flesh at Mollymook and called police.
Additional discoveries of remains were found at Cunjurong Point on Saturday afternoon and Warrain Beach at Culburra on Sunday morning.
Police said on Monday evening they would now forensically examine the findings to determine if they belonged to Ms Caddick.
However remains found by members of the public at Tura Beach on Saturday evening have been confirmed to come from an animal.
Ms Caddick vanished the day after corporate watchdog ASIC executed a search warrant at her luxury Dover Heights home on November 11.
Liquidators say the financial fraudster "meticulously and systematically" deceived those who entrusted millions of investment dollars to her over seven years, then used the money to fund her lavish lifestyle.
NSW Police Assistant Commissioner Mick Willing on Friday told reporters foul play against Ms Caddick was possible but suicide was more likely.
Modelling by NSW Police marine rescue teams, taking tides and drift patterns into account, has explored the possibility that Ms Caddick entered the water near Dover Heights, where she lived, around November 12.
The modelling deemed it possible that her foot could have drifted to Bournda Beach, where it was discovered by a group of campers.
