Ambrosia adds Chocolate Orange Custard to dessert range

Ambrosia adds Chocolate Orange Custard to dessert range

Due to popular demand, Ambrosia’s Chocolate Orange Custard is returning to shelves as a permanent fixture to the brand’s range.

With 100% natural flavours and no added colours or preservatives, Ambrosia’s Chocolate Orange Custard combines the ever-growing and popular trend of orange flavoured desserts with the delicious creaminess of the iconic and much loved Ambrosia custard.


“When we launched the Ambrosia Chocolate Orange as a limited edition for Easter last year, we just knew it would go down well – and it did, shoppers loved it!" said Daniel Jalalpour, brand director for desserts at Premier Foods.

“While we’re delighted that it’s proved so popular with shoppers, we’re also incredibly proud of the team’s innovation behind it, with Ambrosia taking the crown as the UK’s first brand to launch a chocolate orange flavoured custard.

“We’re very excited to see it roll out throughout the year and support retailers with this on-trend flavour – and there will even be a special edition winter pack design rolling out across November and December to help drive sales during the festive period.

“We also look forward to bringing out more innovative products for our customers to enjoy.”

Ambrosia’s Chocolate Orange Custard is available in a 400g can with a MSSP of £1.49.

Drink Trends 2025: Navigating economic challenges with innovation and flavour

2025 will do doubt be the year the drinks industry truly feels the repercussions of the global and UK economic climate, political turbulence at home and away, and the duty hikes threatened for such a long time coming into play. While inflation has seen a gradual reduction over the last 18 months, the increase in interest rates and the knock-on effect this has on household expenditure will continue to be a theme as we head into 2025. We may see some prosper, but for many, it will be a year of adaptation, change and resilience. However, as an industry, we innovate, shape tastes and trends, strive to deliver world class drinks to the on-trade and retailers, and find ways to drive pockets of growth.

2025 will not be easy, but it will be interesting and there are areas of growth shaping the industry during the year ahead.
