We Got the New Flavors of Halo Top's Healthy Ice Cream (Spoiler Alert: the Cookie Dough Is Insane)

By  17:45  No comments

The second batch of Halo Top flavors has debuted, and when the frosty shipment came to the POPSUGAR offices, we collectively lost our s***. Seeing as how the first time we tried Halo Top's original flavors we ended up with best taste test results ever, we've been craving this healthy ice cream ever since.

A quick refresher: Halo Top is high protein, low calorie, low carb, and low sugar. Not that we'd ever encourage you to polish off a pint solo, but if you accidentally happened to do so, it wouldn't be the worst thing to ever happen to you.

The new flavors we sampled were chocolate chip cookie dough, chocolate almond crunch, salted caramel, pistachio, black cherry, peanut butter cup, red velvet, s'mores, and oatmeal cookie. They've also launched cookies n' cream, but that flavor was so good it just happened to uh . . . mysteriously disappear . . .

Here's what went down with the flavors, in our editors' own words, from "pretty good" to "HOLY S***."

Black Cherry

  • "Tastes like fake sugar."
  • "A bit fake tasting."
  • "Tastes like fake cherry candy."


Chocolate Almond Crunch

  • "Too much almond." (this was said about four times)
  • "Marzipany"
  • "I actually really like the amaretto flavor . . . tastes like amaretto hot chocolate, but frozen."
  • "I like this but it maybe needs more chocolate."


Sea Salt Caramel

  • "Not enough sea salt."
  • "Kinda tastes like diet ice cream."
  • "Too sweet, missing the salt"
  • "Don't taste the sea salt, but still good."

Peanut Butter Cup

  • "I like it but I don't love it."

  • "Needs more peanut butter cup."
  • "Eeeeh . . . this ain't cuttin' it."
  • "Tastes good, but where are the actual peanut butter cups?"
  • "Like the ribbons of peanut butter."


Pistachio

  • "Tastes like marzipan."
  • "YUM. Sweet but tasty."
  • "Very creamy, sweet . . . weird aftertaste."
  • "Very sweet and smooth, but lack of flavor notes (vanilla-like)."
