KFC is making headlines with one of its most unexpected creations yet: Gravy Gelato. In an unusual but bold collaboration with London-based artisan ice cream makers Hackney Gelato, the fast-food giant has blended the creamy texture of traditional Italian gelato with the unmistakable savory flavour of its iconic gravy.
The result? A frozen dessert that delivers a warm peppery kick with hints of chicken — a flavour profile that’s likely to divide opinions but is already generating plenty of buzz online.
Launching at 1 p.m. on 15th May, the Gravy Gelato will be available exclusively on the KFC Shop for £5.50 per tub. As a limited-edition release, fans eager to try this unconventional treat will need to act fast.
But beyond the novelty, there’s a meaningful purpose behind the launch. All proceeds will go to the KFC Youth Foundation, an organization that supports grassroots initiatives and community projects aimed at empowering young people across the UK.
This marks the first time KFC has reimagined one of its signature menu items as a dessert — and while it may not appeal to every palate, it certainly reflects the brand’s growing appetite for culinary innovation and social impact.
Whether you're curious about the flavour or looking to contribute to a good cause, this one-of-a-kind gelato promises an experience that’s as surprising as it is charitable.
