You know summer’s truly here when the ice cream van bells ring out the classic tune of Greensleeves and your mouth begins to water at the thought of a bubblegum screwball, multicoloured Zoom or a traditional 99!

Are you tempted to join the queue of children or can we lure you away with talk of completely Free and unlimited ice cream...?

did you know...

Until a few years ago, ice cream flavours were limited to vanilla, raspberry ripple and chocolate. Nowadays, there’s no end to the wild and wacky flavours available. Have you tried:

• Garlic ice cream – guaranteed to keep the vampires at bay
• Red wine ice cream – and if you spill it on the tablecloth, try rubbing some white wine ice cream in to get the stain out!
• Octopus flavoured ice cream – only available in Japan at the moment – I can tell you’re disappointed!
• Bread and butter ice cream – just don’t try and toast it!
  
  

D.I.Y. ice!

If you don’t fancy waiting for the ice cream van, or would rather not risk a speeding ticket just to ensure your lollies don’t melt between the supermarket and home, why not try out our fabulous Free icy delights? Because they’re completely Free, they’re completely unlimited, so you don’t need to keep count or deprive yourself if you feel like a second…or third…
