Confirmed sighting: Cadbury Creme Egg ice cream tub
Posted: 18:56 Tue 20-Mar-2007. Price: £2.79/ 900ml. Location: Costcutter, Kentish Town. Nutritional unusualness: 20.5g sugar, 5.7g fat per 100ml (with a handy guide that a "54.6g serving is equivalent to 100ml of ice cream").
Snackspot
reports: To answer "Rose's" question - this isn't a bad "Vanilla flavour ice cream with chocolate pieces and fondant sauce topped with chocolate sprinkles" (or, as the packaging puts it, "Delicious ice cream with added goo"). As the description implies, there's no shortage of chocolate pieces and authentically odd-tasting fondant, but it lacks that extra edge of the Creme Egg McFlurry (out now, 99p, price and participation may vary) - which, incidentally, the Islington McDonald's pioneeringly made for me using Orange Matchmaker pieces just the other week.
...Meanwhile, in other non-cone-shaped icons, you've probably seen that Colombia Aroma and Ecuador Dark are this year's new Walls Magnums, taking on the might of Masterfoods' ice cream Twix 'Xtra and "Exclusive to Tesco" Maltesers Ice Cream Bites - the Twix promises "a crunchier biscuit" than previous incarnations and the latter comprising "15 bites of Maltesers ice cream dipped [in] milk or white and dark chocolate" for around £2.99.
