We tried ice cream flavoured with Heinz tomato ketchup - here are the results

Ice cream and ketchup lovers across Ireland had their dreams come true this week as Heinz released brand new ice creams made from their favourite sauces.

Made from Heinz tomato ketchup, Heinz salad cream, Heinz Mayonnaise, Heinz Saucy Sauce and Heinz BBQ sauce we decided to try some their new frozen creations.

Named Heinz Creamz, these ice creams were created by parlour 'I Love Gelati' for their loyal customers in Enniscrone and Ballina.

Our video reporter and food maniac Mark Corcoran had a taste of these distinctive flavours to see if they were worth shouting about.

You can watch the video above to see what Mark thought of the new Ice Creamz invention.

Owner of 'I Love Gelati' Michael O'Dowd launched the original tomato ketchup ice cream in 2018 and has since released more award-winning ice cream flavours such as the gin and tonic and prosecco flavours that can now be found in Lidl stores.

Speaking on his new creation, Michael said: "When we launched the original Heinz Tomato Ketchup ice cream two years ago as a bit of fun, we were shocked by its popularity in our stores, we could hardly keep up with the demand.

"I'm delighted to make the full range of Heinz Creamz for a limited run in my Enniscrone and Ballina stores for my local customers. Heinz has made the recipe available online for anyone who wants to try their hand at making them too."

Heinz has made the recipe available online on their website here if you're daring enough to have a go.
