From Duran Duran to Dessert Delights: A Flavour Story Worth Singing About
Growing up, I was surrounded by all kinds of music—but Duran Duran had my heart. Their wild creativity, fashion, and fearless music videos weren’t just entertainment. They were inspiration. That energy now drives everything we do at Roll Me Up, where ice cream becomes more than dessert—it becomes a personal, branded performance
Nut Nut Nutoreous: Where Music Meets Menu
One of my earliest—and favourite—flavour creations? “Nut Nut Nutoreous.” Inspired by the band’s track “Notorious,” this nutty creation was born from my passion for fusing sound and flavour. Alongside other originals like “Rolled Up Mess” and “The Golden Child,” this one holds a special place in our menu—and in my story.
Roll a Disco: A Dance of Flavours
Take “Roll a Disco”—a rebranded version of Tutti Frutti with banana, blueberry, and strawberry. It reflects the bold colours and energy of a disco dance floor—yellow, blue, red—capturing that party vibe in every bite.
Or “Cherry Ice Cream Smile,” crafted for The Access Group’s red-themed exhibition, inspired by the line from Duran Duran’s “Rio.” It’s not just dessert—it’s storytelling
Living the Dream: From Ice Cream Rolls to Buckingham Palace
A few years ago, I could’ve never imagined where this ice cream journey would lead. We’ve catered across three European countries, been on set with Mission Impossible, and even performed live on Oxford Street.
One unforgettable weekend, we were rolling ice cream at Superdry’s HQ event in London—just as Duran Duran were playing live at The Mall outside Buckingham Palace. I turned to my wife and said, “Wouldn’t it be amazing if they dedicated a song to ‘Roll Me Up’… and signed Nut Nut Nutoreous?”
She didn’t quite share the same Duran Duran passion—but I didn’t care. I was dreaming out loud like a kid again. Later, walking from Oxford Street to see them perform live felt like life circling back to say, “Yes, this is possible.”
Because sometimes, dessert isn’t just about flavour—it’s about believing in wild dreams and living them.
