Enlightened: Good For You Ice Cream Review and Giveaway

August 21, 2013 18 Comments

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

First off, I have to say a HUGE thank you for the amazing support on my earlier post.  It really amazes me just how much you all just give support so unconditionally.  I love our tribe (in the words of Miz)!

When Enlightened Ice Cream approached me at testing their product and offering a giveaway, I was skeptical.  Wouldn’t you be?  I mean the main page of the website touts..

“The Good-For-You Ice Cream” 

Oh man… REALLY? Sounds too good to be true right? That tag line had me curious enough to try it and I know you’re wondering too.  Truth is, these have been in my grocery store for a little while now but I never noticed them because I haven’t been doing dairy since MiniE came around.  I am happy to report that MiniE has outgrown her dairy issues.  I still don’t eat much of it just because but when the right reason comes around, I can actually indulge.

So with the knowledge that I wasn’t going to affect MiniE, I took the folks at Enlightened up on their offer.  I was sent a voucher for a free box and headed to the grocery store.   

The Details: The box boasts several things that make these bars different from other ice cream treats…

  • Only 70 calories
  • 8 grams of protein
  • 5 grams of fiber
  • Only 3 grams of sugar
  • They do not contain any artificial sweeteners 

Fudge PopsicleThe Pros: Delicious and Filling.  I bought and tried the Fudge and loved them.  They really hit the spot.  They were a good size and actually I cut it up and shared it with E.   

The Cons: There are only 4 in a box.  It’s priced similarly to other treats but has fewer in the package.  In this case, I’m going to say it’s quality over quantity.  These bars are worth buying.   

The Outcome: YUMMY!  The perfect summer treat with the added bonus of being good for you.

So, with that said, I know you really want to try them for yourself so let’s giveaway some ice cream!

TWO winners will be selected to receive a voucher for a free box.
