Whatever happened to Billabong ice creams?

They were the rival to the famous Paddlepop, and some would argue even better.

But the Billabong ice cream is now long gone – quietly disappearing from shelves and discontinued by Peters.

A hit through the 1980s and 1990s, Billabong disappeared before making a comeback in 2018 – as announced by Peters in February of that year.

During the pandemic they disappeared again, and while the chocolate and rainbow versions still appear on supermarket websites, they’re all out of stock.

A Peters spokesperson told us: “I can confirm that Billabong ice creams have been discontinued couple years ago.”

Billabong no longer has a place on the Peters website – even in the detailed history of the company.

Do you miss Billabong?
