The Birthday Cake flavour isn’t just a local delight - it’s going nationwide. Thanks to Wallings’ recent partnership with Chicken Cottage, Adam’s Food Service and Bestway, the celebratory flavour will be available across the UK starting in March marking the company’s widest-ever distribution.
Owner, Rob Walling, said: “We have done a new birthday cake flavour that will be going country wide with chicken cottage, Adam’s and Bestway in March.
“Also we are having a 40th birthday party at the farm on the 20th of March.”
Back at the farm, the celebrations continue with a 40th birthday party on March 20, inviting the community to join in the milestone.
Running the family business alongside his brother Phil, and with his sister Anna managing the café in the ice cream parlour, Rob Walling is also using the year as an opportunity to give back.
He is raising funds for Children with Cancer UK installing a charity vending machine at Wallings where all profits go to the charity.
Rob emphasises that every small act - whether donating, buying a snack, or simply cheering on the runners, can make a difference.
With a packed year of events, new launches and sweet indulgences there’s never been a better time to visit Garstang Road, Lancaster and join the celebrations.
