In a bowl, combine the biscuit crumbs with the melted butter, ensuring that all of the biscuit has been coated by the butter Unilever no longer produces the brand in Canada. It is sold in Australia and New Zealand under the Streets brand. It is sold in Italy in all supermarkets by Algida, and in Israel by Strauss, under the name Fantasia ("פנטסיה") [8] as well as Germany, [9] Greece [10] and Austria. [11] It is sold in Japan by Morinaga & Company. In Finland, Viennetta is sold under the Ingman brand. [12] The two favourite flavours still exist, Mint and Vanilla, and Strawberry joined the range specially for summer 2013. To decorate, use your hands again to break up the rest of the After Eight mints & arrange them in a circle on top of the cheesecake Even if you aren’t feeding the 5,000 for Christmas, those are great veg prices for many more side dishes, soups and potato-based meals.So yes the Co-op is cheaper if you’re buying the whole lot, but suddenly the savings aren’t looking so huge. Watch out for the individual items

Every time I walk by a supermarket ice cream area my eyes go to the place where I find a Viennetta while my mind wander to my childhood when having a slice of Viennetta was a show that was involving all senses. From the eyes being amazed by the waves on the top, to the crunch of the many chocolate layers, to the great taste that my mouth was sure would enjoy soon.One of my happiest moments last year was going to a very long dance recital with my niece and “rewarding” her afterwards with a late-night drive-thru McDonald’s. I do not want her to grow up eating McDonald’s. But, at the same time, I grew up being rewarded with McDonald’s and remember those moments as pure happiness. I am an idiot and a hypocrite and someone trying to be a good auntie all at once. I didn’t say any of this stuff was easy. At this stage, I should mention that the working classes are, and always have been, very diverse, so some readers will be screaming: “Oh, how patronising – my family had no money throughout the 1980s, but my mother made lentil soup from scratch every day!” This I can only applaud. In fact, let me pause and pay tribute to those kids with a mother like Toni Collette in About A Boy, who never tasted mint Viennetta and were not allowed to eat Cadbury’s chocolate rolls at birthday parties. I would like to express my disappointment at the uneventful experience that having a slice of Viennetta has become. Take 150g (half a box) of the After Eight mints & use your hands to break break them up into irregular sized pieces

As I write today, now in my 40s and living the London life of a Guardian columnist – knee-deep in fancy quinoa, invites to juicing bars and nutritional yeast as a condiment – I confess that I have quit processed food almost entirely. I am at least two years clean since my last Greggs cheese pasty. My fridge is filled with the rainbow of fresh colours that nutritionist Amelia Freer advises us to eat. I am the perfect example of the working-class woman who took notice of all the health warnings. I spent time in California, where my colleagues lived on goji berries and activated sprouts and no one had more than 10% body fat. Their skin gleamed, their bones stayed dense and no one was off work with gout. I cut refined carbs, factory foods and chemical flavourings from my life. What I am left with, alongside a Holland & Barrett loyalty card and a smaller waist, is a confused and jumbled identity. Wave after wave of soft ice cream flowing over layer upon layer of chocolate deliciousness – is it any wonder that Viennetta ice cream is such a firm family favourite?Pot Noodles taste much less synthetic and gnarly these days. Even in the 80s we sensed there was something a bit so-wrong-it’s-right here. There was a definite aftertaste and a smattering of dehydrated veg that would weld to the teeth. I think both of us have changed. Cup noodles no longer feel as exciting as space food and Pot Noodle has taken out all the additives that gave you a raging thirst and a momentary belief you could stage a coup and take down Thatcher, before leaving you needing a nap. I feel they are the poorer for this. 2/5 In 2007, to celebrate the brand's 25th birthday, a 22.7 metres (74ft) long Viennetta was made, setting the world record for longest ice cream.

The idea of creating a gateau made of ice cream and alternated chocolate flavour layers was developed in 1981 by Kevin Hillman, a product development manager at Wall’s Ice Cream. Registered as a unique design, Viennetta was launched as a Christmas speciality in 1982. Launched originally as a multi-portion dessert product, its success after being launched throughout KFC and Pizza Hut restaurants led to Unilever, owners of Wall's, producing many flavour and size variants. Viennetta was introduced in the United States and Canada in the late 1980s under the Breyer's brand, [5] and was discontinued in the mid-1990s, but was re-introduced in the US in 2021 under the Good Humor brand. [6] [7] Now much as I love our local East of England Co-op, it isn’t the only supermarket running Christmas special offers.The chocolate layers inside are gone; those rare very thin layers are lost inside. Just by cutting a slice, you can barely see them, and there is not much to taste either. Viennetta is a British brand of ice cream dessert made by Unilever and sold under the various Heartbrand brands around the world. The original Viennetta consists of several rippled layers of ice cream separated by thin layers of sprayed-on compound chocolate. It is now available in many flavours, including vanilla and mint. [1] History [ edit ] Close-up of a slice of Viennetta, showing the trademark 'concertina' effect created during production Individually, every item was available cheaper elsewhere, if you look at the cost per kg. The only exceptions were the Waitrose brussel sprouts at a tiny 2p more per kg, and the Waitrose turkey crown. The worst part and the most disappointing of all is the watery taste of the ice cream. If I would be asked to taste it blindfolded and guess the taste of it I would probably think I am having some crushed ice. Magical, ever-dependable slices of sort-of-chocolatey happiness. The actual taste of unloading an 80s Friday-night big shop from the car while your mother screams at you not to spoil your tea. On closer scrutiny, I now see that a Penguin is just a large, milkier, slightly posher Bourbon. But the bright red wrapper with the unmistakable logo makes it so much more. And it comes with a joke. I say, I say, I say, why can’t Penguins play football? A: Snowballs. Can’t work out whether this is a climate joke or pithy satire about gender division among aquatic flightless birds in the southern hemisphere. Doesn’t matter. 5/5
