A 2kg bag of ice cubes was Deliveroo’s most delivered item this year, becoming the first grocery item ever to top the list.
The Premium Ice Cubes sold by Iceland beat every other dish and grocery item on the platform as the UK endured its hottest summer on record.
The Diavola pizza from Monte Forte, a pizzeria in Horsham, West Sussex, was the second most-delivered dish, followed by the Chilli Broccoli Salad from Dishoom in Manchester.
A spokesperson from Monte Forte said: “We’re incredibly proud that our Diavola from Monte Forte in Horsham has made the Deliveroo 100.
“Seeing it alongside some of the biggest names in the world is a bit surreal.
“Our team puts so much care into every pizza, and knowing our customers keep coming back for it makes this recognition even sweeter.
“A huge thank you to everyone who’s ordered, to our brilliant team, and to Deliveroo for celebrating what we do. This one’s for the Diavola fans.”

Number four was Morrisons Mango Sorbet, delivered in Glasgow, with the House Cheeseburger from Supernova in London rounding out the top five.
Jeff Wemyss, Deliveroo’s vice president and general manager for the UK and Ireland, said: “The UK’s hottest summer on record had us reaching for the ice and Brits did not mess about.
“A 2kg bag of ice is our top trending order in the UK, the first grocery item ever to top the list, with sorbet, mango slices and milkshakes close behind.
“As the Deliveroo 100 turns 10 in the UK, it shows how far we’ve come, from a restaurant-led platform to restaurants, grocery and retail in one place.
“Whatever the weather or the moment, from a post-gym beef bowl to hay fever tablets or tights before a night out, Deliveroo is on hand.”
On the longer top 30 list, items extended beyond food to include a pair of 40 Denier Tights from Accessorize in London and an eyelash curler from Boots.
