Disclaimer: I don’t like Mars bars, so this outer top-ten positioning is heavily influenced by that. But let’s talk about the ice lolly as a separate entity. It’s a bit boring. It’s a Choc Ice with a less than satisfactory amount of caramel smeared across the top. It’s also much smaller than a Choc Ice and the chocolate is equally as grim, although a smidge more tasty. Mars ice lollies, much like the bars, are rarely anyone’s first choice. There’s no oomph, there’s no get-up-and-go about them. They’re just there. They exist. At any given time, they are chilling both literally and metaphorically in the freezer. We’ve got other options. Yaknow? Mix 'n' match: For a two coloured lolly that the kids will love you can always try half filling the moulds with one thing, letting them freeze and then adding something else before returning to the freezer - anything goes really so just have fun experimenting!

Whether you call it a lolly ice, or an ice lolly, you're bound to have your favourite and you certainly can't beat those childhood classics like a Twister, Fab or a Calippo. But most supermarkets have their own versions too and this week we thought we'd see how they compare to the big name brands we've been demolishing for years. I don't often buy ice lollies (and despite living in Liverpool for 13 years, yes, that's what I'll continue to call them) as I much prefer ice cream but when I do, I usually opt for a Twister or some sort of decadent chocolate creation.I'm usually more of an ice cream girl, but on the rare occasion I have an ice lolly, I usually opt for my favourite - a Fab. However, I love fresh orange juice, so when I spotted the Specially Selected Valencia Orange Ice Lollies at my local Aldi, I couldn't resist buying them, as I imagined they'd taste like frozen orange juice. Sprinkles! Strawberry ice cream! Chocolate ice cream! More chocolate ice cream! So much sugar! Sadly, most of the appeal of a Nobbly Bobbly is in its appearance. In terms of flavour, it’s not exactly great. Particularly the chocolate portion, it always tastes like they have chemically constructed a flavour that’s in the region of chocolate, without actually containing any or tasting remotely like chocolate. What are they so afraid of? Lump some real chocolate in there, nobody’s going to complain. Not you or I. Just give us the taste we deserve. A Nobbly Bobbly is the equivalent of someone’s real life appearance deviating from their online profile picture. Such a tease. Controversy, good evening and welcome to the game. The hill upon which I am willing to die is that Magnum ice creams are incredibly disappointing. A plain Magnum, white or milk chocolate, is boring. Sure, the chocolate is good quality and there’s a hefty amount of it to work through, but is the ice cream underneath really and truly a good finisher? It’s a sombre end to an experience that could’ve been great. A smattering of chocolate chips, biscuit, nuts or various other items within the ice cream portion of all Magnums would take them to a much higher level, but until such time as the manufacturers wake up and give us a truly lavish treat, they will remain outside the top ten list of ice lollies.
