# Low-Carb Ice Cream Cones The Enlightened Sugar-Free Cones Have Just 30-Calories Each By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2021-02-13 | Marketing Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sugarfree-cones References: [foodbev](https://www.foodbev.com/news/beyond-better-foods-unveils-enlightened-sugar-free-cones/) & [eatenlightened](https://eatenlightened.com) Low-sugar and low-carb ice cream desserts are quickly becoming commonplace on the market, so the Enlightened Sugar-Free Cones have been announced by [Beyond Better Foods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/enlightened-ice-cream-range) to offer frozen treat fans with a way to enhance their scoop. The cones are reported by the brand to contain half the calories of a traditional sugar cone with just 30-calories along with three-grams of net carbs and no sugar in the mix. The cones are available now from the brand's website as well as Amazon with a larger rollout to physical retailers including [Whole Foods Market](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dairy-ice-cream-bars), [Sprouts Farmers Market](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fudge-n-vanilla-squares) and Kroger taking place in the coming months. CEO and Founder Michael Shoretz spoke on the new Enlightened Sugar-Free Cones saying, "We are all familiar with that essential question from our local scoop shop: Cup or Cone? We kept all of the best aspects of a classic sugar cone–the flavor and crunch–and left out the sugar. Pair it with any ice cream, like our new light Caramel Fudge Pretzel or low-carb P.B. Cookie & Brownie Dough to create a celebratory dessert experience at home.” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.6/10 - Popularity: 42% | Activity: 28% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Marketing](https://www.trendhunter.com/marketing) > [Branding](https://www.trendhunter.com/branding) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Low-sugar Desserts:** Opportunity to develop other low-sugar dessert options that cater to health-conscious customers - **Low-carb Products:** Opportunity to create more low-carb products that provide a healthier alternative to traditional options - **Sugar-free Cones:** Opportunity to innovate on sugar-free cones and their customizable features, prompting more customers to search out healthier frozen treats ### Who This Affects Most - **Food and Beverage Industry:** Potential for the industry to expand its offerings of healthier food choices, catering to health-conscious consumers - **Health and Wellness Industry:** Opportunity for the industry to create more products that address consumers' increasing focus on health and wellness - **Retail Industry:** Opportunity for retailers to provide healthier options that cater to the growing demand of health-conscious consumers ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Lower Sugar Sundae Cones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sundae-cones.md) - [Dessert-Inspired Low-Sugar Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/enlightened-ice-cream-range.md) - [Low-Sugar Ice Cream Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lowsugar-ice-cream-brand.md) - [Low-Sugar Ice Cream Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nestlfroneri-ice-creams.md) - [Low-Sugar Frozen Yogurt Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/enlightened-greek-yogurt-bars.md) - [Vegan Frozen Dessert Cones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hold-the-dairy-mini-frozen-dessert-cones.md) - [Zero-Sugar Creme Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zerosugar-creme-cookies.md) - [Premium Full-Fat Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/betterwith-ice-cream.md) - [Cookie-Made Ice Cream Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hagendazs-butter-cookie-cone.md)
