Mondelez International has partnered with Bulla Family Dairy to launch a range of ice creams blended with Picnic, Crunchie, and Boost chocolate bar flavours.

Bulla general manager of marketing and innovation Nick Hickford said the company had already had success with the Cadbury Marvellous Creations and Cadbury Creme Egg ice cream launches - so felt now was the time to mash up some other flavours.  

The Picnic cones include chocolate and caramel flavoured ice cream with a caramel centre, finished off with chocolate topping and peanuts, while the Boost cones include chocolate-flavoured ice cream, mini choc crisps, a caramel centre and chocolate chips. The Crunchie cones offer chocolate and honeycomb flavoured ice cream with honeycomb pieces.

Each Cadbury ice cream cone also comes with a chocolate-flavoured crunch wafer cone lined with milk chocolate. RRP is $7 for a pack of four.

Hickford said only fresh milk and cream, along with quality ingredients, were used in the range.

The Cadbury Boost flavour also now comes in a tub format as an extension to the Cadbury Picnic and Cadbury Crunchie tub ranges in freezer aisles.

The ACCC has instituted court proceedings against Clorox Australia, owner of GLAD-branded kitchen and garbage bags, over alleged false claims that bags were partly made of recycled 'ocean plastic'.

In news that is disappointing but not surprising given the recent reports on the unfolding Qenos saga, the new owner of Qenos has placed the company into voluntary administration. The closure of the Qenos Botany facility has also been confirmed.

An agreement struck between Cleanaway and Viva Energy will see the two companies undertake a prefeasibility assessment of a circular solution for soft plastics and other hard-to-recycle plastics.
