One of the newest better-for-you ice cream flavors from Peekaboo Organics is a Unicorn Birthday Cake ice cream, which has a serving of vegetables in every container. Although Unicorn with Hidden Zucchini flavor is full of a mineral-rich vegetable, it boasts "veggies you can't see or taste." When creating this new flavor, Peekaboo Organics founder Jessica Weiss Levison was inspired by her own three children and decided to take "birthday cake one step further and [give] it a magical spin by adding a purple frosting swirl."
This family-pleasing ice cream flavor offers all of the indulgences of ice cream with the benefits of vitamins and minerals from eating vegetables.
With some of its other ice cream varieties, Peekaboo Organics also includes other unexpected ingredients like tomato and squash for added nutrients.
