Weekend sorted as Gateshead takeaway Saleems deliver Tango Ice Blasts and cinema food to your door

Sometimes the trip to the cinema to watch a film is just a step too far when you can't quite summon the energy to get off the couch.

Well now that problems is sorted thanks to a Gateshead takeaway who deliver all the treats you'd expect at the cinema to your door.

There has been outrage this week at the news that cinema chain Petition launched as Cineworld stops selling Tango Ice Blasts and replaces them with something else from its menu. Yep, the drink that is sits hand in hand with a tub of popcorn, is disappearing from all of Cineworld's UK multiplexes and being replaced by Vimto drink Icee.

If you're not ready to accept that news, there is some sunshine on the horizon as you can get them delivered to your door.

Saleems Desserts, who are based in the Glynfellis area of Gateshead, serve up four different flavours of Ice Blasts - the standard blueberry and cherry you can get at the cinema AND lemon and bubblegum.

They are priced £2.95 Regular, £3.95 Large, £4.25 3 Flavours Mix, £4.50 4 Flavours Mixed and £5.95 Extra Large.

And Ice Blasts aren't the only cinema must-have you can get dropped off to enjoy in the comfort of your living room.

Saleems, who are famous for their curries, kebabs and pizzas, also do American flavours of Fanta like Berry, Green Apple and Fruit Punch, waffles, brownies, sundaes, crepes, cookie dough and nachos.

And if you want to go all out they do a Movie Night Box for £20 which contains Ice Blasts, nachos, pick n mix sweets, popcorn and more.

You can direct the Saleems website , where you can also browse the full menu.
