I know this isn't strictly chocolate but the one I'm thinking of did have a chocolate coating! Does anyone (Oldspice?) remember Lord Toffinghams?

I do. I remember having onewhen I was about 18. Went out same time as Funny Feet

Yes, Jolly jellies and Lord Toffinghams were two of my favourites. The Toffinghams were coated in chocolate, had a toffee flavoured ice-cream base and a chewy toffee centre.

Jolly Jellies were a trio of water ice and cream ice with a jelly centre. The 1970s were a dream for pocket money priced lollies - black dracular lollies, purple magic lollies, yoghurt flavoured lollies and all sorts.

My favourites were Mint Hits and Pineapple Mivis.

Oldspice your memory is incredible! I'd forgotten about the black Count Draculas - they used to turn your tongue black! Didn't they have red jelly in the middle too? I was particularly fond of Lord Toffinghams though because they were like a combination of Caramac and Golden Cup - two of my favourites.

I vaguely recall these products you mention. My abiding memeory of old ice creams is 'Push ups'?

Little cardboard cylinders of vanilla and raspberry sauce ice cream with a little plastic stick to push the base upwards as you ate it.

Lovely.

Does anyone remember, late 70s / early 80s, an ice cream not unlike a minimilk but the top couple of inches were dipped in chocolate? I think maybe there were hundreds and thousands on top too. I was so sad when those went out of production

Also remember the chocolate mousse in a pot with about 5 spots of cream piped on the top, called a Lovely? They were great but the worst part was that they came frozen and you had to wait hours for them to thaw out

In a timewarp style newsagents near where I work they have an ancient ice cream poster over the freezer, featuring many old classics. One I would particularly love to see back is the Sky - an ice cream bar with Aero style chocolate in the middle!

Also does anyone remember Rol? A choc ice with white vanilla ice cream and a swirl of chocolate and toffee ice creams in the middle. They were still available on the continent at one time, but it's a long time since I saw one...

SKY!

I remember those - they were lovely.

I still love the 'Magnum; Sins' edition of last year, especially the 'Gluttony' flavour...

Mmm Magnums are lovely. The white choc/vanilla one is best for me!
