Strawberry

If you are already familiar with our strawberry ice cream, you've probably noticed that the previous plastic container has been replaced by circular paperboard. Not only will this provide a more enjoyable experience, it also reduces the climate impact of this product by 79%. Yes, you read that right (that is, if you read 79%, you read it right). Also, besides the obvious uniqueness that comes from being an ice cream made of oats, it may also be appropriate to note that there are real strawberries in this ice cream made of oats. At least 15%. Yes, big, juicy berries are mashed up and mixed in perfectly. Nice color, too.

(Note! If you don’t feel like reading all the copy below, you can just read the words in bold for a quick summary.)

As you may imagine, it is not that easy to create an oat ice cream because there are certain properties in milk and cream that make dairy ice cream special. For example, we needed an alternative to milk and cream’s saturated fats, which are not found in oats. Unsaturated fats are usually great of course, but in an ice cream context they make the ice cream runny in a non-ice-creamy way. So we decided to use a plant-based fully-hydrogenated fat, which means that the unsaturated fat has been saturated. We have also mixed in a little stabilizer, which of course is a disadvantage if you prefer melted ice cream. In that case, maybe just skip the part where you freeze the ice cream (though we don’t officially recommend it).
