Magnum's Hands-Down Best Ice Cream Is An Iconic Treat With A Fruity Twist
It's tough to be dissatisfied with a cold, creamy ice cream bar from any brand, yet there's still something special about Magnum. Maybe it's the elegant packaging, unique flavors, or the fact that the bars brag about the cacao percentages used in the chocolate coatings – but does the actual taste of every product live up to Magnum's reputation? We taste-tested and ranked Magnum ice cream treats to find out, and the first place winner, the Double Raspberry bar, absolutely exceeded our expectations.
This bar puts a fruity, over-the-top spin on Magnum's iconic Milk Chocolate Ice Cream Bar, with wild raspberry ice cream, layers of chocolate and raspberry sauce, and a shell containing 44% cacao milk chocolate. Our taste tester found the combo of berry and chocolate flavors to be perfectly balanced, yet more bold and dynamic than other Magnum bars that are rather chocolate-centric. Unlike some berry ice creams that taste like vanilla that's been dyed pink, Magnum's version is flavorful and refreshing, and the taste of the real raspberries in the bar comes through without a hint of artificiality.
The intriguing mix of sweet, tart, chocolatey flavors and crunchy, creamy textures in the Double Raspberry bar make it our number one recommendation from Magnum. It's also the brand's only permanent, non-limited edition ice cream bar with fruity elements, so it wins extra points for uniqueness. Fans of raspberry chocolate truffles or dark chocolate raspberry fudge can't miss this one.
Other ice cream fans also love Magnum's Double Raspberry bar (despite the occasional quality control issue)
We're not the only ice cream fans who have fallen for Magnum's Double Raspberry bar. Countless customers name this product as their favorite Magnum treat, with some finding it so irresistible that they buy and hoard several boxes at a time. Reviewers love that the bar tastes just like fresh raspberries, the chocolate is bold and rich, and the two flavors combine harmoniously for an experience that's an easy 10 out of 10. One TikTok commenter called the bar "The best ice cream ever," while a fan on Facebook wrote, "I am not an ice cream person but I love these Magnum Double Raspberry bars. Any other ice cream, nope." It's clear that even customers without a sweet tooth can enjoy this bar, probably because it's not overly sugary.
The only problem some people have with Magnum's raspberry bar is quality control. In 2025, multiple customers complained online about receiving bars with vanilla ice cream at the core instead of raspberry — a shame, since the raspberry ice cream is one of the best parts. Luckily, it appears that the brand doesn't leave customers hanging. "I reported it, gave them the bar code and serial number, they apologized profusely and sent me a coupon!" said one Reddit user who encountered the issue. Meanwhile, another commenter had a similar experience, stating that they received a coupon for a free box of treats to replace a defective one.
