A Cinema Staple Crossover
The latest high-profile brand crossover to appear online is a multipack of Magnum ice creams flavoured with Tango Ice Blast. The concept, shown in a standard three-pack box, combines Magnum’s classic format with the distinctive branding of the bright blue and red frozen slush drink.
Tango Ice Blast has a permanent spot in the national consciousness, largely thanks to its ubiquity in cinema foyers. The flavour is a fixed combination of blue raspberry and cherry. The mockup packaging suggests this would be translated into an ice cream format, wrapped in the signature cracking Magnum chocolate. This is a well-trodden path for food concepts, merging an established treat with a popular drink brand to create something that feels both new and familiar.
The Magnum Range Today
Magnum’s current UK supermarket lineup is extensive but follows a clear pattern. The core of the range revolves around different types of chocolate and nut combinations. You have the Magnum Classic, White Chocolate, and Almond sitting as the foundational trio, alongside more complex builds like Salted Caramel and Pistachio.
Fruit flavours do exist, but they are typically presented in a dessert context. The Magnum Double Raspberry is a permanent fixture, and the more recent Signature Peach offers a slightly different profile. These products pair fruit with chocolate, but the flavour source is the fruit itself. A Tango Ice Blast edition would be a step in a different direction, basing a product not on an ingredient but on another branded drink. It’s a move that would take Magnum out of the dessert space and into the world of confectionery crossovers.
What the real range looks like
The current Magnum range in UK supermarkets focuses on chocolate, nut, and dessert-inspired flavours like Almond, Pistachio, and Double Raspberry. A Tango Ice Blast variant would be a significant departure, introducing a slush-style drink flavour not currently seen alongside options like Classic, White Chocolate, or Salted Caramel.
