The light ice cream range is crafted with ultra-filtered milk and is free from artificial flavors or colors. Dreamland Creamery is introducing itself with protein-rich versions of classic flavors like Vanilla, Chocolate Chocolate Chip, Cookies & Cream and Peanut Butter Chocolate Swirl. Strong competition in the ice cream market is challenging ice cream brands to make their products stand out by offering better-for-you formulas that are packed with more benefits than ordinary ice cream.
