East Lothian’s Luca’s Ice Cream bids farewell to a cherished chocolate wafer due to factory closures, leaving locals heartbroken.
East Lothian: Folks in Musselburgh are pretty upset right now. Luca’s Ice Cream just announced they’re saying goodbye to a favorite chocolate wafer.
They’ve got a shop in Morningside too, and the news hit hard. The owners explained that their supplier, Waverley Baker in Glasgow, has shut down production.
People can’t believe it. One local even asked, “This can’t be true?” It’s like losing a piece of their childhood.
Luca’s posted on social media, saying, “After many delicious years, it’s time to say goodbye to our beloved chocolate wafer.” They warned that once they’re gone, they’re gone for good.
Fans of the treat are devastated. One person said, “I’m heartbroken, these are a slice of heaven.” Another chimed in, “That’s just wrong; it’s a Scottish staple!”
It’s not just Luca’s feeling the pinch. Colpi Ice Cream in Glasgow is facing a similar situation. Their manager, Donald MacInnes, called it a huge loss for their business.
With all this going on, it’s safe to say that 2025 isn’t starting off on the right foot for ice cream lovers in Scotland.
