Who is Halo Top?
Halo Top has been successfully making its presence known in countries like the United States of America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and South Korea. Now, they are back in Singapore! Offering a range of low-calorie, high-protein, and low-sugar ice creams without compromising the taste. A normal pint of ice cream can easily fetch 900 – 1200 calories while from Halo Top, each pint is only between 290 – 360 calories. That is two-thirds less calories!!! For health-conscious individuals, this will be a game changer.
The Taste
Vanilla Beans
Vanilla: A Classic Reinvented
Vanilla ice cream is often seen as a benchmark for any ice cream brand. Halo Top’s Vanilla flavour is a testament to their commitment to quality and taste.
Flavour Profile and Ingredients
Halo Top Vanilla is made with simple, natural ingredients. The primary flavour comes from real vanilla beans, which provide a rich and authentic taste. You can actually see the vanilla seed in the ice cream. The ice cream base is made from skim milk and cream, ensuring a creamy texture without the high-fat content found in regular ice creams. The inclusion of milk protein concentrate adds a protein boost, making this an ice cream you can feel good about eating.
Nutritional Benefits
A pint of Halo Top Vanilla contains around 290 calories, significantly lower than traditional ice creams and is the lowest among the range of ice cream. With 19 grams of protein per pint, it not only satisfies sweet cravings but also contributes to your daily protein intake.
Taste and Texture
Despite its low-calorie, Halo Top Vanilla does not compromise on taste. The vanilla flavour is robust and natural, with a smooth and creamy texture that rivals traditional ice creams. It’s a versatile flavour that pairs well with a variety of toppings, from fresh fruits to a drizzle of dark chocolate.
