The iconic Cornetto gets a rainbow-fab Unicorn makeover

Aussies are nothing if not suckers for a nostalgic offshoot — particularly those of the Instagrammable variety — so this latest colourful dessert creation is sure to please the masses.

Australia's most iconic ice-cream cone just got a whimsical redesign, with Streets bringing the ultra-Instagrammable UniCornetto to Australia for the first time.

From today, ice-cream buffs can get stuck into the multi-coloured Cornetto, available nationwide at service stations and convenience stores.

Curious as to what unicorn-flavour tastes like? Yeah, let's break it down ...

For the first time, sweet-tooths can anticipate a bright pink cone that tastes like "sweet cotton candy and marshmallow", according to the brand's media release.

The ice-cream also has a surprise inside, with a decadent layer of strawberry sauce hidden near the top, and a crown of multi-coloured crispy chocolate balls and ice-cream rosettes. It's a lot.

The UniCornetto was first launched in Thailand mid-2018, sparking an Instagram meltdown. As a result of the positive reception, it spread to Indonesia and has now finally made it's way to Australian shores for the very first time.

If the UniCornetto frenzy overseas is anything to go off, it's sure to be a massive hit Down Under.

"We're thrilled to be giving our customers a taste of magic with this exciting new member of the Cornetto family," Streets brand manager Samantha Jarmul said.

"The UniCornetto was created to bring a unique dessert experience to teens and
families alike and is too majestic not to be shared with friends."
