Milkybar Rowntree’s Jelly & Ice Cream has been created by Nestlé as a combination chocolate candy product that brings together two well-known brands for a delectable treat. The product is inspired by the classic namesake dessert and boasts Milkybar white chocolate pieces alongside Rowntree's fruit-flavored jelly sweets for an ice cream-inspired flavor. The treat comes in 95-gram sharing bags that are perfect for consumers to pick up for everyday enjoyment or ahead of a get-together to serve to guests.
Brand Manager for Milkybar at Nestlé Confectionery Lucy Fawcett spoke on the Milkybar Rowntree’s Jelly & Ice Cream saying, "We’re excited to share our latest ice cream inspired sharing bag with the UK and Ireland this week and can’t wait to hear what our confectionery fans make of it. We loved the idea of jelly and ice cream as a flavour inspiration, it bring back memories of carefree summer days, sitting around the table with friends and family. Our sharing bags are designed to bring people together and hopefully this tasty new treat will bring back some of that summer nostalgia when people try it."
