An ice cream seller has been told he can no longer sell his rum and raisin flavour because it is too alcoholic.

Gavin Murray opened his business Just Ice in Derby Market Hall four months ago and hoped to sell the classic choice to his customers.

But council chiefs said the business had to apply for a licence because his rum and raisin has an alcohol content of more than 0.5, meaning it is classed as alcoholic.

Mr Murray now faces paying £1,000 for the correct paperwork under the Licensing Act, or he can modify the production process to burn off all the alcohol.

The 47-year-old said: "Rum and raisin is an old classic and has always been there. They are two flavours that go together really well and the people of Derby definitely love it, we get people asking for it at least once a week.

"It's especially popular among people who are a little older than teenagers.
