British ice-cream maker Lick Me I’m Delicious creates a scoop in the flavour
Wales: A British ice-cream maker has invented a dessert which can treat erectile dysfunction - by flavouring the batch with Viagra. The Arousal flavour contains around 25mg of Viagra per scoop and was created on specific request from a celebrity customer of South Wales ice cream company, Lick Me I'm Delicious.

Inventor Charlie Harry Francis added the Viagra to the ice cream and used champagne for flavour to complete the bespoke recipe. Viagra is available at 25 milligrams, 50 milligrams, and 100 milligrams. For most patients, the recommended dose is 50 milligrams.
Francis says he was approached by an âA-list celebrity' to create the very specific flavour for a party, and spent a few days perfecting the recipe. âIt's all very secretive. We had to sign a confidentiality agreement so I can't reveal the name of the client.'
âAll I'm allowed to say is it was for a party and that they were very happy with the end result and that I made "the required amount".' âBecause it was for a celebrity they're being cagey about what I can say about it.'
Francis, who last year succeeded in making the world's first glow-in-the-dark ice cream using Jellyfish luminescence protein, says that although creating the ice cream was great fun, sourcing the Viagra was âembarrassing'. His team is currently working on creating the world's first flammable ice cream.
