Picture someone standing in a queue that stretches out of an Udderlicious shop and along the pavement. Shouldn’t be too much of a stretch of the imagination… it’s already happening on a regular basis in this warm weather.

It's a warm Saturday, they’ve been waiting the better part of fifteen minutes, and there's a supermarket two minutes' walk away with a freezer full of ice cream they could be eating right now.

However, they don’t move. They check their phone, chat to the person behind them, waits it out. When they finally get to the counter, they don’t just grab whatever's fastest; they ask what's new this month.

This isn't a shop rotating between a handful of safe flavours and calling it variety. Behind every scoop is a library of more than 200 perfected recipes, developed through customer-inspired competitions and continual recipe testing. Every Udderlicious is effectively an ongoing research-and-development operation disguised as an ice cream parlour.

For someone looking at opening an Udderlicious franchise themselves, that's something which makes a huge difference when it comes to standing out from the crowd. Those queues aren't just a nice sight - they're proof that customers actively choose the brand over quicker, cheaper alternatives.

For a long time, most people's benchmark for ice cream was whatever sat in the supermarket freezer, but that’s changed. People are increasingly willing to spend a little more on something that feels genuinely worth it, rather than settle for something that's simply nearby.

That's why customers don't simply visit once. They come back to discover what's new every month.

These flavours came out in July’26:

· Raspberry & Lime

· Cherry Coulis Sorbet

· Japanese Green Tea

· Passion Fruit & Lemonade

But… the ice cream is only half the picture. Customers are not just there for great ice cream, they’re there for the experience. A place that makes them smile, and is more a destination than just a 5-minute stop. A warm, friendly atmosphere, beautiful, quirky artwork, and everything a nameless supermarket or generic ice cream van could never replicate.

It all turns a quick purchase into somewhere people genuinely want to spend time.
