Two Spoons Creamery is bringing a first-of-its-kind innovation to the frozen dairy category: high-protein ice cream with zero added sugar and GLP-1-friendly ingredients. Instead of added sugar or sugar alcohols, this ice cream gets sweetness from allulose, an all-natural, low-calorie sweetener that studies show can trigger the release of GLP-1.
Two Spoons Ice Cream is now available in four flavors full of mix-ins: Strawberries & Cream, Caramel Swirl, Fudgy Brownie, and Rocky Road. "We spent a full year just working on our Rocky Road, a truly unique flavor in this category," said Rich Ferreira, Two Spoons co-founder, "It's a decadent chocolate ice cream swirled with super fudgy brownies, toasted nuts and tons of our original marshmallow fluff. The whole thing is gluten-free and packs 30g of protein."
