What it is
A little foil cup of smooth chocolate flavour candy with a hint of hazelnut that melts on the tongue and leaves a cool freshness behind. There is no mint in it; the chill is a trick of the fat.

Where it comes from
Icy Cups started in Germany, where foil cup chocolates are an old confectionery format, and crossed to Britain as a pocket money sweet in the 1970s and 1980s. Hannah's makes the version in British sweet shops today.
What it's made of
Sugar and vegetable oil from coconut and palm kernel with whey powder, cocoa powder, soya flour, hazelnut paste and natural flavourings, set in a foil cup.
