General Retro Foodie Lovliness .... And Not So Lovliness

[the-peoples-poet]

Anyone remember this stuff? I remember the ad clearly and I remember wanting to try some, but I never liked ice cream so I didn't.



I do remember these, they were quite tasty, different to what else was around at the time.

Yes Poet,
Ice Magic blew my little mind when it came out, loved the stuff.
I remember chocolate, chocolate orange & chocolate mint, can anyone remember what the other flavour was ?
You can still get similar products.
And Wickers........
I would almost kill for a few bags of the Prawn Cocktail ones.
Used to get them from a massive vending machine at the local swimming pool.
They were covered in 'flavour powder' & were so strong.

I think the other Ice Magic flavour might have been caramel. Don't quote me on that though!

Something else that I remember and loved, 5 4 3 2 1 biscuits. They were sooooooo nice. Miss those.

Think it was caramel too. Not lime as suggested above.

Re: General Retro Foodie Lovliness .... And Not So Lovliness

Why was ice magic so popular? Don't get me wrong I was as excited as everyone else when it came out but it was basically nasty choc ice type chocolate. Very good advertising though as everyone wanted it.

Strange, in your post earlier in this thread you say you don't remember Ice Magic. Now it's the 'loveliest thing' you ever ate. You'd not forget something like that.

Criss Cross - Now this is something I really don't remember. I don't ever remember Cadbury making anything savoury.



Milky Way's back in the day when they had lovely brown whippes centres, but no-one I know seems to remember that. They had bloody brown centres for about 40 years or something, how the hell can they forget?!



Just what was the blue 'flavour' of Viscount?

[stuckinthe80's]

Re: General Retro Foodie Lovliness .... And Not So Lovliness

The blue Viscount was coconut flavour. My favourite.

Re: General Retro Foodie Lovliness .... And Not So Lovliness

Ah! Thank you for that, I always wondered.

[darren]

Re: General Retro Foodie Lovliness .... And Not So Lovliness

Certainly do not remember criss cross or the coconut viscount.
never had either of those.



Stuckinthe80's i just remembered i loved that ice magic.



never knew cadbury's did something savory.

i sure love the others though.
