The Good:
This is one of the only #veganicecream sandwiches I have found readily available at local grocery stores near me. So the access is good! They are passable like the dairy ice cream sandwiches in appearance thing for the most part. I like that they are smaller bars than the typical sandwiches which also allow me to cut back on the serving size. It’s probably about half the size of a traditional sandwich. And from the packaging it seems like they don’t add in more sugar than they need to. These are touted as 100 calories. I don’t calorie count, but it’s a fairly filling snack.
The taste is good IF you like #coconut and are a #coconutlover. The flavor I had is the Vanilla Bean and it tastes heavily of coconut. Most of their products to me no matter what the flavor is, the underlying flavor is still coconut. Again, that probably won’t bother people who like coconut and coconut milk, but if you want a pure #vanilla taste, this does not provide that. The #chocolate sandwich part does have a tendency to stick to fingers. It will break apart on your hands so I tend to eat mine quickly.
The Presentation/Packaging:
8 bars come in the box and these can be found in the freezer section. Usually in the novelty ice cream section with popsicles, frozen pies, etc. The packaging is also clearly labeled vegan and #pareve. There is also cute messaging on the box which isn’t necessary, but it’s a nice touch. The box is cardboard and rectangular. It can fit in most freezers and is recyclable, but the wrapping is plastic and NOT recyclable. They retail for about $6 USD.
The Bad:
It is an ice cream bar so I don’t expect the ingredients to be the most nutritious thing, BUT this company uses #palmoil so that’s something to consider if purchasing if you want to avoid. Also while the box is recyclable, the plastic wrapping is not. I’m not sure how they may navigate this in the future, but it would be nice to use a compostable wrapping if possible. And again, if you don’t like coconut, you should skip this product.
Overall:
I like these #dairyfree sandwich bars. They are a good once in awhile #snack. They don’t feel like the traditional ice cream bars and definitely not as melty. They are not terribly expensive, but being split into half-sized bars, you don’t really get a lot.
