The Streets ice cream tradition
Between WWI and WWII, Edwin (‘Ted’) Street with the help of his wife and brother laid the foundations (in Corrimal, NSW) for what would ultimately become Australia’s biggest and best-known ice cream manufacturer. Streets ice cream was originally made in the back shed by Ted. He would then sell these to neighbours along with sweets, cakes and lemonade. Popularity grew and he soon used a cart, then a one-horse- power motorbike to sell Streets ice cream. It continued to grow and today Streets ice cream is sold throughout Australia and New Zealand with well known brands such as Magnum, Paddle Pop and Blue Ribbon.
Bringing joy to life
Few foods are guaranteed to put a smile on people's faces like Streets ice cream. Ice cream products should always be fun, but we have supplemented ours with an ever-growing range of lower-fat, lower-sugar products. We have introduced a range of lighter versions of some of our favourite Streets ice cream brands. Although they contain less fat and fewer calories, they are as luscious as their classic partners! For example Blue Ribbon Light and Paddle Pop. For those wanting to enjoy their treats in smaller serve sizes, we have Magnum Minis. There's something for everyone!

Eat healthy, feel good
A balanced diet is a healthy diet. It’s all about eating the right types and quantities of a variety of foods. This will:
- Ensure adequate intakes of all essential nutrients
- Promote daily and long-term health and vitality
- Help maintain a healthy weight
Lighten up
Restrictive diets are difficult to stick to for long, because they can be dull and unsatisfying. A good way to lose weight and maintain a healthy weight over the long-term is to change your lifestyle for good, by eating a balanced diet and being more physically active. Making sure that you are active is particularly important as it helps you to use up extra calories, and builds and maintains a leaner, stronger body. This doesn’t have to mean a gym class, you can be active by tangoing with friends, getting off the bus a stop early and briskly walking the rest or just by putting more energy into doing the housework! Please remember that your doctor and/or dietician can help you if you’re worried about your weight, or if you’re considering a weight-loss diet or a new exercise program.
