Description

Sales of ice cream have experienced a modest decline in current value terms in 2025 for the first time since 2020, with this being driven by consumers’ growing sensitivity to higher retail prices resulting from inflationary pressures on key ingredients. In particular, sales of take-home dairy ice cream have seen the most significant decline, as households have looked to moderate their discretionary spending and so have been opting for smaller-format options or lower-cost indulgences.
