Price of ice cream likely to skyrocket this summer in Hungary

Change language:

The surge in ice cream prices primarily stems from the need to elevate both production costs and employee wages. Producers of raw materials such as butter, milk and chocolate have increased their prices, making the ice cream more expensive. Moreover, they are burdened with out-of-control utility bills and rental expenses.
