FAQ
How does 'No Sugar Added' differ from sugar-free?
'No Sugar Added' means no sugars were added during processing, but the product may still contain naturally occurring sugars from milk and other ingredients. 'Sugar-free' typically means it has less than 0.5 grams of sugar per serving.
Is this ice cream suitable for diabetics?
While it has less sugar than regular ice cream, it still contains carbohydrates and may use sugar alcohols. It's best to consult with a healthcare provider or dietitian to determine if it fits within your specific dietary plan and to monitor portion sizes.
The swirl is typically made from a chocolate-flavored syrup containing cocoa, sweeteners, and thickeners, which is injected into the vanilla base during production to create the distinct ribbons.
