SAINSBURY’S has confirmed it has axed a popular sweet treat online and in its stores.
Much to shoppers’ dismay the retail giant has discontinued the Mini Magnum Euphoria Pink Lemonade ice cream sticks.
On X, one customer wrote: “Haven’t been able to get my treat of the day Mini Magnum Euphoria Pink Lemonade. What’s going on?”
Sainsburys responded: “I’m sorry but these have been discontinued it appears. This may have been a limited run by the supplier.
The downhearted customer responded to the news and said they were the “perfect” treat for people at Slimming World.
The delicious Magnum Euphoria Pink Lemonade ice cream sticks are made with lemon ice cream with a raspberry sorbet core and coated with white chocolate and popping candy.
But not all is lost for Magnum lovers as the supermarket chain is still stocking the standard size Magnum Euphoria Pink Lemonade.
Shoppers can pick up a box of the standard sized treats for £4.25.
Alternatively, shoppers can pick up a box of Mini Magnums in another flavour.
On offer are mint, caramel and white chocolate, among others.
And if the Mini Magnum Euphoria Pink Lemonade is all you’re after, rest assured – they can still be purchased at Ocado for £3 and Tesco for £5.
Sainsburys and Magnum were approached by The Sun for a comment.

The shock axing comes after Sainsburys scrapped its popular own-brand mellow roast instant coffee, leaving customers distraught.
Writing on the supermarket’s website, one faithful shopper said: “I have used and loved this coffee for many many years but you seem to have stopped stocking it. Why?”

Previous reviews left on the coffee on the Sainsbury’s website raved about the great taste.
And this isn’t the first own-brand product to be taken off Sainsbury’s shelves.
The supermarket has also discontinued its Plant Pioneers Meat Free Steaks, leaving vegan customers furious.
One peeved shopper took to X to tell the retailer they were “very dissatisfied” with the news.
