Froneri, the UK-headquartered ice cream JV owned by Nestlé and R&R, has launched a new flavour of its ice cream sticks under its Nuii brand. The latest addition is a Milk Chocolate and Italian Roasted Hazelnut variant, using nocciola del Piemonte, a delicate variety of hazelnut sourced from Italy. Helen Sharp, brand manager for Nuii, said: “We’re excited to launch this new flavour to the market, as we believe it will be a strong contender in Nuii’s ice cream collection and will be loved by UK consumers because of its indulgent flavours”. The new ice cream sticks are available exclusively in Asda stores for an RRP of £4.00 per three-pack and will roll out to other retailers in the coming weeks.
