9 retro ice lollies we completely forgot existed and need to come back
All this sunshine has got us craving something cool 🍦
We do love a throwback moment and with the warm weather set to stay for the next few weeks, we thought we’d take a look back at some of our summer highlights from days gone by.
Take a trip down memory lane with us as we some of the most iconic retro ice lollies that once made our summers. From Fat Frogs to Funny Feet and Orange Maid’s – they just don’t make them like they used to.
Keep scrolling to see our round up of throwback ice lollies that need to be brought back immediately!
Sparkles
10p Sparkle ice pops came in a variety of flavours including pear, pineapple, orange and our personal favourite cola. What a steal!
Loop the Loop
Lemon and lime iced sherbert with a thin layer of dark chocolate - these bad boys are still a freezer favourite today, just with a brand refresh. Just as delicious as they were back in the good old days!
Jiggly Pops aka Wibbly Wobbly Wonder
That age old fruit combo - Strawberry and Banana - sipped in chocolate, YES PLEASE! Now called Jiggly-Pops, there's a reason these have stood the test of time, they're fab!
Orange Maid
There's nothing more refreshing than a cool glass of Orange Juice in the morning - so why not freeze it and call it an Orange Maid.
Screwball
Anyone else remember chasing the local ice cream van for one of these suckers? This delightful little cone of ice cream and tasty sauce is a childhood favourite. Many stores now sell their own versions, but nothing beats the proper Mr Whippy ice cream.
Funny Feet
The popular 80s ice cream Funny Feet is another favourite that can be found on our freezer shelves today. Strawberry ice cream in the shape of a foot - what's not to love?
Nogger
Also known as a dentist's dream - with a similar look to the Feast ice lolly, this lolly had layers of chocolate and ice cream and a naughty nougat filling.
Zoom
Officially out of this world, kids would spend summers pretending this ice lolly was a rocket and 'zoom' it across the room. Nowadays these are known as Rocket lollies, with three distinct fruity flavours.
Fat Frog
Hearts were broken when they discontinued this iconic ice-pop from the 90s. In fact, there's a Facebook group dedicated to it called 'Fat Frog Ice Pops' that has over 144,981 followers. Perhaps this is what the alcoholic drink is names after?
