Unicorns are so 2019!

Ice cream fans are going to be in heaven when they hear about a new launch from Wall’s.

It appears mermaids do exist… in Cornetto form at least!

Tapping into the trend for all things magical and mermaidy, Wall’s has launched the amazing new Mermaid Cornetto.

The cones are filled with delicious matcha green tea and raspberry-flavoured ice cream.

According to the blurb, the Mermaid Cornetto contains “raspberry fruit ice and matcha green tea ice cream in a wafer cone with chocolate-flavour coating, raspberry sauce and biscuit and cereal pieces covered in white chocolate”.

It’s then topped with candied blue starfish and silver ball sprinkles.

What’s more, Wall’s has swapped the traditional Cornetto cone for a pink one!

The wrapper is pretty special too, as the ice cream comes in a holographic pink and blue wrapper that looks like it’s been made of mermaid scales.

The Mermaid Cornettos certainly look set to make unicorn-themed goodies seem so 2019!

In fact, keen ice cream fans may have had a Wall’s UniCornetto, as they launched overseas last year.

The new Mermaid Cornettos will be on sale in Tesco from March 2, with Sainsbury’s following suit on March 16.

Single cones will have an RRP of £1.20 each, while you’ll also be able to get your hands on packs of four for £3 – which makes them just 75p each.

Excuse us while we go and make some room in the freezer!

Some eagle-eyed shoppers have spotted the ice creams on sale already though – pop along to your local Wilko and you’ll find them there for £1.50.

Yes we know it’s more than the RRP, but it appears the store has something of an exclusive.
