2. Breyer’s Carb Smart

This brand has my personal favorite chocolate ice cream ever. Carb Smart is reduced sugar, so it’s not totally sugar-free, but still perfectly safe for those watching their levels of consumed sugars. Like Clemmy’s that you read about in the previous slide, Breyer’s Carb Smart tastes so much like regular ice cream that you could give it to a kid and they would never, ever know the difference in all honesty (at least don’t think so personally).

Currently, there are eight different varieties of Breyer’s Carb Smart, but I’ve only seen the Chocolate and Vanilla flavors. Here are there other flavors that are advertised on their website:

  • Carb Smart Peanut Butter
  • Carb Smart Almond Bar
  • Carb Smart Vanilla Bar
  • Carb Smart Fudge Bar
  • Carb Smart Mint Fudge Bar
  • Carb Smart Caramel Swirl Bar

In the Vanilla flavor, there are 6 grams of fat and 4 grams of sugar. In the Chocolate flavor, there are 6 grams of fat and only 3 grams of sugar (not too bad).

Now, personally, my favorite way to eat either of the flavors above, is to squeeze on and top it off with some Smucker’s Sugar Free Caramel Sauce or Smucker’s Sugar Free Chocolate Sauce (although the Caramel is my favorite, together, they make a pretty yummy combo)!
