    The best one that they've discontinued is definitely the aforementioned Sky bars. It was like the best choc ice ever with a chocolate bar (was it an aero type of thing?) up the middle. I really, really miss these.

    I remember Dominos. They were nice.

    Anybody remember a strawberry ice cream (like a golly bar) with bits of frozen strawberries in it? I used to live on those but I can't remember what they were called, or if they were even HB.

    Leadmore used to do a massive range of strange icecreams but they were hard to find even back in the early 90's. The factories still there in Kilrush I don't know what they make though.

    How can I have forgotten Golly Bars. Not enough charming caricatures on ice cream packaging anymore.

    Anybody remember when they phased those out? I seem to remember them being around in the 90's, but the gollywog had been taken off.

    The Strawberry Ice cream you are looking for is called "Fruitline" it wa realised from HB in 1988 and stayed on the market untill 1990.

    Fat frogs were the bomb. Used to love them things. My mam used to get me a fat frog when she bought her 10 silk cut extra. Fast forward ten years later, I'm drinking fat frogs (alcoholic drink.. meh.. not the same) and buying 20 john players for myself haha.

    OH and is it me or do the maxi twists (the tub with flavours in it) have far less rasberry/lime sauce in them these days??

    Super Mario ice-creams were really yummy, think they were about 30p in the 90's. It was Mario's head in strawberry, chocolate and vanilla.

    Don't remember them, but if they're pink and orange how on earth did they get their name, I wonder?!

    You know Lemon Calippos are still available, and Iceburgers? (but in plastic-y wrapping)

    I'd love Fat Frogs back!
    Theyre not the same though in the plastic wrapper:o

    mmmm fat frogs

    Didn't they re-release Freaky Foot a few years ago?

    I really miss Sparklers :( My fav were either the strawberry / apple (red & green) one or the strawberry / lemon one (red & white), they were amazing!
    I think it was wibbly wobbly wonders were released not freaky foot sadly :(

    Good point about the black beauties being pink and orange!

    Anyone remember Zanzibars? I remember the name and that I bought loads of them, but can't remember what exactly was in them!
