The Klondike Choco Taco, a taco-shaped waffle cone filled with fudge-swirled vanilla ice cream, covered in chocolate, and topped with peanuts, was discontinued by Unilever in July 2022 due to increased demand for other Klondike products, sparking nostalgia and fan outcry, though hopes for its return linger.
Product Description (Pre-Discontinuation)
Concept: A dessert shaped like a taco, blending the novelty of a street food with a classic ice cream treat.
Ingredients: Reduced-fat vanilla ice cream, artificially flavored fudge, peanuts, and a chocolate coating inside a waffle cone shell.
Texture & Flavor: A combination of crunchy cone, creamy ice cream, fudgy swirls, and nutty chocolate.
Discontinuation Details
When: Announced in July 2022, ending nearly 40 years of production.
Why: Klondike cited an "unprecedented spike in demand" across their broader product line, making it difficult to maintain availability for all items, including the Choco Taco.
