Morrisons Launches Nostalgic Angel Delight Ice Cream Desserts
- Morrisons launches Angel Delight ice cream sticks in banana and butterscotch flavors.
- Each pack costs £3.25, featuring the dessert's classic fluffy texture.
- Excited shoppers express their delight on social media, with high anticipation for the product.
Shoppers are buzzing with excitement over Morrisons' latest addition to their dessert lineup – ice cream sticks that pay homage to the iconic Angel Delight. With flavors like banana and butterscotch, these treats are bringing a slice of the '90s back into the present day.
For £3.25, dessert aficionados can grab a pack of these ice cream sticks, each cloaked in a delicious layer of milk chocolate, echoing the airy and mellow texture that made the original 1967 dessert a household name. Morrison's promise of "fluffy, light, and mallowy" goodness has nostalgia-seekers and sweet-toothed shoppers alike in a frenzy.
The buzz began in a popular snack-focused Facebook Group, where the news broke: "NEW! Angel Delight Banana Ice Cream Sticks & Butterscotch Ice Cream Sticks Coming Soon!" This announcement quickly gathered steam, amassing thousands of likes and comments. Fans of the dessert didn't hold back their enthusiasm, with one proclaiming, "OMG MY DREAM CAME TRUE!" and another eagerly anticipating the butterscotch flavor. "Take my money," and "Heaven on a stick!!" were among the other jubilant reactions.
Keira Clarke at The Sun detailed the launch, noting that Morrisons is already selling these dreamy treats online, with a three-pack going for £3.25. While eager customers might have to wait a bit for widespread availability in physical stores, the anticipation only seems to heighten the allure.
Not only does this launch add to the growing line of Angel Delight-inspired products, including soft serve ice creams in supermarkets, but it also taps into a broader trend of reviving classic flavors and brands for today's consumers. With prices for the ice cream tub versions ranging between £3 and £3.50 at various retailers, and the original dessert still available for a mere 75p at Sainsbury’s, it's clear that Angel Delight's legacy continues to evolve while staying true to its roots.
For those looking to make the most out of their supermarket visits, there are numerous tips to keep in mind. From hunting for reduced items with yellow or red stickers to opting for store-brand products over luxury lines, savvy shopping can lead to significant savings. Additionally, schemes like Lidl's Waste Not, offering 5kg boxes of fruit and vegetables for £1.50, demonstrate the ongoing efforts to provide value and reduce waste.
Tom Church, Co-Founder of LatestDeals.co.uk, commented, "The launch of Angel Delight ice cream sticks at Morrisons is a brilliant move, tapping into the love for nostalgia while offering something new and exciting. It's fascinating to see such classic tastes being reinvented for the modern palate, and I'm sure these ice creams will be a hit among shoppers of all ages."
