Nothing says summertime more than ice cream, and with the official start of summer, I feel like it’s the PERFECT time to share the news from Skinny Cow. If you’ve heard of Skinny Cow before, you already know that it’s going to be something good… something cold, sweet, and good! If you haven’t heard anything about them yet, then let me fill you in.
Skinny Cow is a brand that brings you lighter dessert options in the frozen food aisles. If you’re a calorie counter, a fat gram counter, or someone who just wants a lighter ice cream option, Skinny Cow has what you’re looking for. They offer sandwiches, cones, cups and ice cream bars, along with candy bars and clusters that are low fat without being low on taste! What makes a Skinny Cow ice cream treat so good? As a person who has tried other light options, I think Skinny Cow is awesome because of it’s delicious, rich, ice cream taste.
After a month or two of fatty meals, fast food, and eating on the go, it is HIGH time that I get back to making smart choices with my food. The only problem is, I love ice cream… especially in the summer. I can get the best of both worlds with Skinny Cow, and even better is I will never get tired of their stuff since they seem to try out new flavors just when I “need” (or maybe just want…) it the most. In fact, Skinny Cow sent me some coupons to try out some of their newest Slimited Edition (LOVE the name) flavors. After a day of unpacking and working around the house, I was SO ready to bite into one of these tasty treats.
We had two of the Slimited Edition flavors, and one that was just marked as a new flavor. The Best of Both Swirleds Low Fat Ice Cream Sandwich, was my absolute FAVORITE! I even cut one in half and let Atticus dig in. You can see that it got the kid’s seal of approval too! Delicious soft cookie, super creamy ice cream, the perfect blend of vanilla and chocolate… Mmmmm…
We also tried the Mmmmocha Truffle Ice Cream Bars which were also SUPER yummy. They are drizzled with chocolate ribbon icing which adds the perfect amount of crunch to the outside of the ice cream.
I was really… REALLY… excited to try the Skinny Cow Shake-Stirs. You see, my ice cream of choice is usually a shake. I couldn’t find them in the store though. For your own benefit, you should know that there are 2 Slimited Edition shake flavors – white mint cookie, and double chocolate crumble. I’m hoping those show up at my grocery store sometime soon!
If you’re looking for something cold, creamy, and light this summer – SKINNY COW! You can eat light and eat rightl
