Croatian ice cream producer Ledo has won a Gold medal at the annual conference of the International Ice Cream Consortium (IICC) which was held in Barcelona this week.

Ledo, who produced their first ice cream, Snjeguljica (Snow White), in 1958, won the Gold medal for its Ledo Hešteg ice cream.

Ledo Hešteg was the winner of the 2016 Best Commercial Solution Award after impressing judges with its novelty ice cream.

The judges were impressed with the unique shape of Hešteg, an ice cream on two sticks which can be shared both in real life and online. This ice cream on two sticks, #icecreamtoshare, is a combination of vanilla and an orange coating. The ice cream was designed in collaboration with the creative agency Imago.
