Enlightened Ice Cream New Flavors March 2018

Enlightened Just Launched 5 New High-Protein, Low-Cal Flavors (Spoiler: Movie Night Is the Best)

It's been a while since we've seen new flavours from Enlightened, but they came back with a vengeance. Dropping five new flavours — Cookies & Cream, Movie Night, French Toast, S'mores, and Glazed Donut — the brand has continued their high-protein, low-calorie, low-sugar, low-carb legacy with some seriously innovative new treats that are worth a taste . . . or two. Or three.

Here's what our coworkers thought of each and every new (and healthy!) flavour. Which one will you choose?

Cookies & Cream

A classic cookies and cream flavour is always a crowd-pleaser, and this one was no different. Though the other flavours in this taste test seemed to be somewhat polarizing, Enlightened's take on an Oreo-inspired ice cream really did the trick for our tasters.

  • Good texture and flavour.
  • Best one!
  • Reminds me of real ice cream.
  • Great texture.
  • Light, but lots of flavour!
  • Creamy!
  • Feel like it's missing sugar?
  • I prefer oatmeal raisin cookies, but I would eat this!
  • Yum yum — tastes like full on Oreo!


S'mores

Remember what we said about polarizing flavours? Perhaps the most divisive was S'mores. Some were enchanted by the marshmallow-flavoured ice cream base, while others weren't wowed.

  • Yum! Marshmallow ice cream = *heart emoji*
  • A bit too sweet.
  • Delicious!
  • Too artificial.
  • Tastes good and has a good texture!
  • Tastes like bubblegum???
  • LOVE! Great texture.
  • Not loving this — also I am obsessed with s'mores so I have high expectations/standards for this flavour


Movie Night

Never thought we'd be into butter-flavoured ice cream, but here we are. This buttered-popcorn base is swirled with caramel and speckled with chocolate bits, and on the whole was well-received (yet still, despite almost all positive reviews, it got two people who said "BLEH").

  • Little bit of savory and sweet.
  • Love the buttery flavour! Surprisingly my favourite. Who knew I'd fall in love with popcorn ice cream?
  • Like the toffee flavour.
  • BLECH!
  • It's like toffee had a baby with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup.
  • Yasss, salty and sweet!
  • Perfect combo of salty and sweet.
  • Supertasty!!! Never thought I would like it!
  • Not for me, please turn the movie off
  • Not amazing but not bad
  • Didn't expect to like it this much!


French Toast

Here we are again — a polarizing flavour that had some begging for more and others turning their noses. Verdict: If you're into breakfasty-flavoured things and love maple syrup, this is for you.

  • Reminds me of the French Toast Crunch cereal!
  • I like this!
  • The syrup saves it . . . almost.
  • Whoa! Cold French toast that's low-carb? YES.
  • Heavy on the butter.
  • French Toast is THE ONE! Viva la brunch!!
  • Tastes artificial. Not a fan.
  • Digging the maple.


Glazed Donut

The nail in Glazed Donut's coffin was actually its name. Despite being named for the plainest of doughnuts, this flavour had swirls of chocolate icing and rainbow sprinkles, thereby making it a chocolate sprinkle doughnut . . . and people were confused. And you know how people behave when they're confused . . .

  • Nope! Strange flavour. Very artificial.
  • Is this froyo?
  • Misleading flavour.
  • FAKE NEWS! False advertisement!
  • Unclear what I just ate.
  • Yummy artificial goodness.
  • Funfetti dream.
