It's Dark Chocolate (aka the best thing ever) and, like all other flavors of Wink Frozen Desserts, is a gluten-free, nut-free, egg-free, dairy-free, soy-free, non-GMO vegan substitute for traditional ice cream.
Whether you have an allergy, a plantbased diet, lactose intolerance (guilty), or a diet, Wink's Dark Chocolate Frozen Dessert works for you.
And it's sugar-free, too, for diabetics and health-conscious ice cream lovers alike!
But how does it taste?
I'm all about honesty in my reviews, so I'll tell you right off the bat that it has a much icier consistency than dairy- or most coconut- or soy-based ice creams. Think more along the lines of Italian ice, though not quite.
If you let it thaw for a few moments, it scoops pretty well.
The chocolate flavor isn't as intense as I'd expect for dark chocolate, as you're probably not surprised to hear, given the relatively light brown color.
That said, it is sweet, without a weird artificial sweetener aftertaste, and it is chocolatey.
Especially if you're planning to make an ice cream sundae or ice cream sandwich out of it, or top it with syrup or other toppings, I seriously doubt you'll miss anything over the sugar, fat, and dairy packed traditional alternative.
If you don't have allergies or intolerances, normal ice cream can fit into a healthy diet as an occassional treat. For something sweet and cold for every day, or that you can eat a pint of without feeling bad, however, this is a great option!
What's your favorite ice cream brand?
What's your favorite ice cream flavor? It's probably cookies and cream or southern praline for me!
What do you look for in an ice cream? Creaminess, lightness, and lots of mix-ins.
