    Can anyone recommend a vegan alternative to a lolly?

    I bet you couldn't eat a whole one though. And would you have room for a vegan in the freezer? The stick alone would have to be the size of a fence post.

    This would be one made out of cheese right? Or maybe prawns?

    Loved these, was really nice soft ice cream

    Reminds me of Happy Faces where there was a couple of small chocolate eyes, nose and mouth.

    Er, no.


    Slight tangent as I’ve never really been an ice cream or lolly lover but on a hot day I’ll do my best to hunt down a raspberry Slush Puppie.

    There's some excellent pictures of wrappers and adverts from the past on here https://flashbak.com/british-ice-lollies-and-ice-creams-1960-1990-19609/

    Must have missed out on the Lyons Maid Brandy Alexander (shame!). And what, just what, was a Wall's Kinky!!!!

    Edited to add: this might assist on the Kinky.

    In no particular order:
    Solero, Raspberry Mivvi or Split, Cider Lolly, Peanut Magnum mini, Feast original

    Magnums are too sickly for me.

    My choice would probably be a Strawberry or Mint Choc Chip Cornetto or a 99 Flake.

    Unfortunately these don’t meet the criteria so it will have to a a simple Lemonade Sparkle or whatever they are called.

    In the early seventies there was something called a Wiz, (or Wizz?).
    Banana flavour on the outside, toffee in the middle. Awesome, but didn't last long.

    As someone said
    ''I am not having this. Magnum is cheating. It's just a choc ice with a stick. If I shove a stick into a pork chop it doesn't make it a pork lolly.''

    Enjoying a lovely fruit pastel lolly at the moment. Going down a treat.

    Cornish Mivvi. Don’t care what flavor.

    Jubbly can’t be a lolly as there’s no stick.

    Sadly no more.

    One of these stuck in a 99 from Reno the ice cream man was called a Popeye.

    Reno covered Lee Green / Ferrier areas and as well as Popeyes, Oysters, two ball screwballs etc he also had a chocolate machine that he dipped your ice cream in to give a nice crispy chocolate coating, most popular on a double lemon ice...

    sorry for going off thread.

    Zoom definitely had the best shape. Perfect for its age - space race and all that.

    Those 100% orange juice lollies are nice when it is sweltering.

    I am recalling lollies from my youth that had a plastic stick and a superhero character on the bit covered by the lolly - so you didn't know who you were going to get until you started eating it. I think there was a number to collect. I think some people painted them - although I didn't. I am remembering the Penguin and Robin so must have been DC!
