The Cornetto Max range is being expanded in the UK to give it a more indulgent, texturally-driven recipe as a nod to the increasing demand for ice cream treats with an artisanal inspiration.
The product range features two varieties including Hazelnut & Chocolate and Pistachio, which each start off with a waffle cone lined with chocolate and white chocolate, respectively. The Hazelnut & Pistachio option is paired with chocolate and hazelnut ice cream, a salted hazelnut sauce and a chocolate disk finished with hazelnut pieces, while the Pistachio has pistachio and vanilla ice cream with a pistachio sauce, white chocolate dish and roasted pistachio pieces. The treats each maintain the brand's signature chocolate cone tip to prevent drips and for a final touch of sweetness.
The Cornetto Max range puts a crunchier cone and an updated ice cream formulation in focus to prioritize consistency in every bite.

Packaged Ice Cream Manufacturers — Manufacturers of frozen novelties stand to benefit from reformulated bases and layered inclusions designed to deliver consistent texture and flavour in every bite during mass distribution.
-
Ingredient and Confectionery Suppliers — Suppliers of nut pastes, sauces and textured inclusions may see demand for stable, high-intensity components tailored to maintain structure and taste in frozen matrices.
