Arctic Colin The Caterpillar Frozen Dessert

What is it?

Chocolate ice cream is moulded into a caterpillar shape and finished with a chocolate coating, creating a frozen take on the familiar Colin look. Usually sold as a dessert to slice and serve straight from the freezer, it’s built around the same character as M&S’s cake version, but with an icy centre instead of sponge. Typically, these character desserts come with chocolate decoration and a sweet biscuit or confectionery-style exterior, so the format sits somewhere between a novelty ice cream and a celebration centrepiece. Keep it frozen until serving, then let it stand briefly so it’s easier to cut.
