The cult following of the Golden Gaytime is fanatical to say the least.

Despite being in the middle of winter, mad Australian fans of the ice cream have won a social media campaign that will see the treat available in tub form.

• Americans love the Tim Tam
• Your favourite lolly could be gone forever
• Gulp! Can you make Heston’s epic Masterchef dessert? 

The Facebook group ‘Golden Gaytime Icecream Tub Project’ led the charge for product maker Streets to release the ice cream in tubs and the page has so far amassed more than 4000 followers.

And on Sunday the group went into meltdown, posting a photo of their success – all 1.25 litres of it.

“Everybody shut the f*ck up… We did it… Well actually I did most of it… After writing my letter… THEY RELEASED IT (only in 1.25 litre… I guess that will have to do… For now)” the admin posted.

The company confirmed on Monday it was releasing the larger product.

“We have managed to fit Golden Gaytime into a tub with Golden Gaytime classic and two other new flavours.

“Each is a perfect union of vanilla, Gaytime biscuit crumbs and that unique Gaytime flavour.

“Grab a spoon and treat your tastebuds to this match made in dessert heaven,” a company spokesperson told news.com.au.
