The supermarket have merged two of the nations favourite things, ice cream and chocolate biscuits, to make the ultimate summer sweet treat.
Expect to find chocolate ice cream topped with the classic Jaffa Cake orange jelly, inside a chocolate-flavoured shell.
And customers are already raving about them.
'These are excellent. Top half is a very juicy, tangy, orange flavoured jelly with an unusual (but nice) texture for a lolly. Bottom is a simple chocolate ice cream. The combination is delicious,' wrote one happy customer.
'Great mix of refreshing orange and chocolate. Fab price too!', wrote another.

Jaffa Cake fanatics will also be thrilled to know that it's not just ice cream taking inspiration from the classic British biscuit. Also up for grabs is a Jaffa Cake gin, perfectly for a tangy G&T, or a summer Negroni with an added orange kick.
For fully fledged JC fans, a Jaffa Cake trifle is available at Tesco, and features layers of "rich chocolate sponge", along with everyone's favourite orange jelly for a "light, creamy treat". Not forgetting Morrison's smashing Jaffa Cake doughnuts, which are just as dreamy as you think.
