We tasted Ikea’s crunchy round lollipop.

This weekend, Ikea will bring a special product, the meatball lollipop, to its department stores that started as an April Fool’s joke. Iltalehti got its hands on a few lollipops ahead of time, which the summer editors gave their assessment of. You can see the reactions in the video above.

According to Ikea, the meatball and lingonberry jam-flavored lollipop is a batch of one million Nekus produced by Ikea. Lollipops will be available in Ikea department stores around the world. However, it cannot be purchased, but is distributed to customers free of charge.

The meatball lollipops can be tasted in Finland’s Ikea department stores on June 13-14, 2026 and in design studios on June 13.
