About this deal

Here we go. Now we’re into the good stuff. This is the Ballon d’Or territory of ice lollies. Cornettos are like a fancy 99 ice cream. They’re structurally sound, they offer a good balance of flavour and they reward you with a little chocolatey gift when you reach the end of your journey. Obviously the strawberry Cornetto is the best, followed by the mint and then vanilla flavour. You can even get a few fancy varieties on holidays, but the strawberry Cornetto is never going to let you down. It’s a reliable win every time. The chocolate at the bottom is inspiring. Go out there and be the chocolate at the bottom of a Cornetto that you want to see in the world. Namaste. If it wasn’t for the inclusion of real Maltesers pieces in this ice lolly, it would not be receiving such a high placement, I can assure you. The shape of the ice lolly is fun and even a smidge kinky, but it’s the Maltesers that are doing the heavy lifting here. The chocolate is standard, not quite at Magnum standard but nowhere near the depths of despair like Choc Ice chocolate, so somewhere comfortably in the middle. The ice cream is also quite a standard effort, look, it’s fine. But it’s the Maltesers that are vital here, I cannot stress that enough. Those tiny balls bring another dimension to the lolly that deserves serious recognition. More questions. So many questions. Nobody knows what a Twister is made out of. Again, is it an ice cream or an ice lolly? What flavour is it? What ungodly ingredient makes the white swirl on the outside? Is the red bit strawberry? How is it so gosh flipping dog-darn refreshing? All these questions and more combine to make the ultimate ice enigma. And only one of them has an answer: In case you’re unaware (a disgusting amount of people have never even heard of Maxibon, let alone had one), one half is a chocolate chip ice cream sandwich (the “bread” is soft biscuit) and the other half is more along your standard choc-ice hype. It’s amazing, if not only for being one of the only ice creams you can actually bite into properly, without your teeth making your brain vibrate off through the top of your skull and out through the ceiling, all the way to Mars.

I used to love these as a kid, and I am never wrong about anything, so I still love them now, even though I haven’t had one for about ten years. Still guarantee that they’re ice-cold poles of pure, unadulterated banter, though. I en periode i 1980'erne der solgte Sun Lolly en "Sorbet" hvilket var en frys selv-is med et meget højt frugtjuice indhold, der havde en mere blød konsistens, denne er dog udgået af produktion. All inclusive holidays are the most popular choice for holidaymakers on a budget who want their money to go as far as possible. As all your food and drink paid for in advance, you can indulge as much as you like knowing it’s not going to cost you a penny extra. Sound good? Read on to find out more about why all inclusive is the smartest way to travel! Why Go All Inclusive? Simply chop up your fresh fruit of choice (we love using strawberries and raspberries together) into halves.

19. Ribena Lolly

Oh, and really, let’s be honest with ourselves here, look at them, they look like what leaked out of your sewage pipes when they burst last winter. The next step involves draining the fruit from the can and adding the partially set jelly, which you’ll then pour into ice lolly moulds. Feel free to swap out the fruits for a summer fruits option. I have never had one of these “things” but they look like they should come with a trigger warning. Can you imagine putting that piece of coral in your mouth? It would be like running your tongue over someone’s leg after they’ve fallen into a nettle bush. It’d be like wrapping your lips around a sea cucumber. Like kissing a scabby elbow. Lapping away at the stucco walls on that abandoned house down the road. Grabbing a step ladder, going round your nan’s house and using it to orally assault her Artex ceiling. I will never buy one of these.

Why has this monstrosity been around for so long, and why does it continue to eke out such a miserable existence? I know the answer: it’s because for some unknown, ungodly, inexplicable reason, people like it. But I’m writing this, and I think it’s rank – people that enjoy them have the mouths of a Madame Tussauds waxwork. If you like Fabs, you have no tastebuds. However, it’s not necessarily one for the hottest of days – I find it’s more of a quite-sunny-but-not-sweltering-actually-I-could-very-easily-eat-this-inside type of stress-buster. It’s a comfort lolly, rather than a life-saver, but that doesn’t make it any less delectable. Many thanks. P.S. I’m going to eat four in a row and then probably another two about five hours later.” Is this an ice cream or an ice lolly? Defo ice cream in the middle, but defo ice lolly on the outside, isn’t it. God knows, and also doesn’t care, because nor do I – all I know is that I want one. I want one quite often. Embracing the taste of summer and a family favourite, our fruit lollies are milk-based and are the perfect opportunity to sneak some extra vitamins into your little ones’ diet. IngredientsThe same goes for a 99 – it comes with a plus point because you can eat the wafer cone straight afterwards. Here’s a classic that’s been appropriated by brand after brand, supermarket after supermarket, with the taste not really getting affected across the board. It’s frozen orange juice – you can’t really go wrong with that, can you? How do you make orange juice – already one of the most thirst-quenching substances on the planet – even more suited to a hot day? You freeze it – it’s simple maths, or something.

Let’s be honest for a moment. It’s not a Twix, is it? It’s a Twix ice lolly, which takes some elements of a Twix, but then turns it into an ice cream version of itself. Like a normal Twix’s cousin that’s from somewhere foreign. They’re under the same name, but in no other way are they similar. As a separate entity, they’re not bad. The biscuit is usually quite soggy, but still a nice change from the standard chocolate / ice cream combination we’re used to. The caramel never looks how it does in the advertised image above, but it’s still delicious. The main issue is that if your Twix ice lolly hasn’t already been broken or dented before you get to consume it, one bite ruins everything as it splits down the middle and shatters into a thousand messy pieces. Still tasty though. Not really much point dwelling on this one: the Bounty chocolate bar is the pits, so the Bounty ice cream is also the pits.

We’re fully entering the middling mediocre range, now. Prepare to be neither over nor underwhelmed. This is ITV at about 7pm on a Saturday. No matter what you say, Ribena is bland. It’s a boring drink that I never get. Freezing it makes it marginally more interesting, but it’s not enough to contend with the big boys. Gimme a free one and I’ll happily eat it – it may even make my day a tad better, on the whole. But pay for one? Never have done, never will. An all inclusive holiday is the best way to stay in control of your money if you’re on a budget. The price covers essentials so there is a lesser risk of overspending in the resort.
