Ice cream (mini magnums) is only on long haul flights leaving LHR before 1630 or 1700 I believe. On later flights and return sectors there's tuck boxes loaded and available in the galley.
I think technically there's only enough loaded for economy (WT) passengers, but occasionally you might see a basket pass with them in premium cabins if enough people in the back are asleep.
It'll be served roughly mid way through the flight. You'll miss out of you're asleep. It's not on request (unless you miss it).

Only departing Heathrow and Gatwick unfortunately and yes it has to be a daytime flight. If you are awake you won't miss it, it happens approx halfway through the flight. Search for "magnums" for more information.

Got it twice on LHR-ICN couple of weeks ago. I was half asleep and woke to movement when FA opened the curtain between WT and WTP. But yes, those on full snore mode missed out. For the life of me can't remember how long into the flight was it.

As mentioned above - the Magnums are loaded for WT, but the more people asleep / decline, the more likely WTP will get them (high chance of that), and they do get to CW (I'm running at 100% strike rate there) and First too. You can ask the crew to look out for you if there are any left.

They are now loaded for WT and WT plus customers, I also offer them in the other cabins as I hate them to waste, I do explain these may not always be available, however the company policy is for them only to be served in the WT cabins.
