The IKEA x Chupa Chups lollipop

They’re real. They’re strange. They’re fun and quirky. Ever taste a meatball and gravy and lingonberry flavour lollipop? Not many have. At IKEA, we love meatballs. But we also love Swedish candy. The IKEA x Chupa Chups collab is here.

An IKEA x Chupa Chups collaboration meatball‑flavoured lollipop shown in its wrapper against a multicoloured background.

An IKEA meatball on a stick starts spinning on a colourful, wavy background. Lingonberries fall from the top bringing to mind the flavours of iconic IKEA meatball dish. The meatball transforms into a lollipop while continuing to spin. When lingonberry rain ends, the lollipop's spin accelerates. During the spin, a wrapper appears on the lollipop, revealing the product name. The camera zooms in on the meatball-flavoured Chupa Chups lollipop.

Want to taste it?

Pop into an IKEA store. Play. And one of these could be yours. Not everyone can be lucky enough to snag one, but everyone will have fun trying. Limited drop for this summer only. For the record, the lollipop does not contain meat.
