McDonald’s launches new ice cream

ATTENTION all ice cream lovers: the McFlurry just got better.

McDonald’s is now selling Cadbury Creme Egg McFlurries in all its Australian restaurants.

The Creme Eggs are smashed up and blended into the regular soft serve and will be available for a limited time only.

The bad news is that this McFlurry contains 1610kj (383 calories) per serve and 56g of sugar, which is more than double the 25g grams the World Health Organisation recommends we consume daily.

The Cadbury Creme Egg McFlurry retails for $4.80.

McDonald’s customers around the world have already gone crazy for the Easter-themed flavour, posting tweets including: “Just had a Cadbury creme egg Mcflurry here in Canada. Let me repeat that, A CADBURY CREME EGG MCFLURRY!!! #dreamsdocometrue.”

And Australian fans are matching their hysteria, tweeting, “Creme Egg McFlurry verdict: Yes.” and, “CADBURY CREME EGG MCFLURRY. NOT A DRILL. NEED HELP.”

It’s not quite as exotic as McFlurry flavours in some other countries, however, which include Durian Crunch in Singapore, Horlicks (a malted milk drink) in Malaysia, After Eight chocolate mint in the UK and Baci chocolate and hazelnut truffle in Italy.
