Chinese web-sensation German Black Beer ice cream now in Singapore

Singapore’s Happy Ice Pte Ltd has announced the availability of the new German Black Beer Ice Cream made by Chinese ice cream company Deshi (德氏), reported sethlui.com. Deshi first launched the ice cream with 1% alcohol content in China in January 2020 as one of the novelty ice cream to compete in the crowded marketplace to catch consumer attention.

Each year, Chinese ice cream makers have to come up with ice cream novelties, sometimes to the extent of bizarre, including calamari ice cream with real squid pieces and crab roe ice cream.

This is how Happy Ice describes Deshi German Black Beer Ice Cream:

“Shaped like a beer bottle, each popsicle features a chocolate coating disguised as a beer cap layered on top of a black beer coating that makes up the body of the ice cream. One bite into its creamy black body and a light greyish layer of rye ice cream will be revealed. Filled with bits of rye grains, the rye ice cream exudes an intense nuttiness made more enjoyable with bites of chewiness from the grains itself.”

The German Black Beer Ice Cream is available for pre-order now at https://happyice.com.sg/delivery, or get it exclusively at Sheng Siong starting from 13 July 2020.

MILO Goes Eco! Introducing the “MILO UHT Paper Straw” for the First Time in Thailand

In Thailand, MILO has introduced a paper straw that will initially be used for two variants, which are MILO UHT 30% Less Sugar and MILO UHT No Sucrose.

It delivers the same great MILO taste and is environmentally-friendly as it’s made from 100% virgin paper certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).

Nestle plans to plan to expand the use of the paper straw to cover the entire MILO UHT product range by early 2021. With this change, Nestle aims to eliminate the use of more than 100 million plastic straws by the end of 2021.

Nestle started using paper straw on selected MILO products in Malaysia in 2019 and on selected Nescafe RTD products in Indonesia in 2019.
