I was one of the lucky few to be chosen to try the new Breyer's Smooth and Dreamy Ice Cream. The flavour I bought was Mocha Fudge Brownie, but I didn't like it very much. The ice cream itself though was really good. Very creamy, very rich. You'd never know that it only has 1/2 the fat. I will buy this again (in a different flavour) and am eager to try the "No Sugar Added" variety of the Smooth and Dreamy, which I was unable to find in the grocery stores in my area. Oh, and the ice cream scoop that came with the coupon was fantastic!
I have the chance to test the Smooth and Dreamy Mocha Fudge Brownie Ice Cream and I enjoyed it very much.
The taste is wonderful and you can't tell that it's half the fat! The texture is really Creamy. This Ice Cream is not to sweet, just perfect!! The flavor is amazing! My family and me loved it! It's a great product.
Sure it's a bit pricey but I think it's worth it!
I will buy it again for sure! Very good Ice Cream! I love it!!!
This ice cream takes "melts in your mouth" to a whole new level! The ice cream is aboslutely smooth and very dreamy to hold on your tounge and savor the flavor. I tried the Breyes Smooth and Dreamy Strawberry and Cream. I have to say that usually I let my bowl of ice cream sit for awhile to soften up a bit. I am so happy to say I didn't have to do this with the Smooth and Dreamy. It was instant gratification, just the way I like it and the taste was fresh strawberries with cream, very delicious. I will be purchasing this again and again! Thanks for the opportunity to try a nummy product and to recieve a most awesome ice cream scoop!!
Not only was this a great experience but it is HALF the fat too! It doesn't get any better than this in the ice cream world!
I tested the Smooth and Dreamy Vanilla Bean Ice Cream and I enjoyed it very much. It tasted great and was very soft. It's awesome that it's only half the fat because it tastes just as good as the normal ones. I would buy this again and my family enjoyed it very much too. Delicious Ice Cream.
Got a great scooper too!!!
I tried this ice cream for free from chick advisor! Thanks for this great opportunity, and I LOVED the ice cream scoop that came with this tester opportunity as well!
With the free product coupon I got, I tried the vanilla bean ice cream, and I felt that it was just as tasty as the ice cream that contains more fat, so i was very happy with this new product.
I would recommend this product to others to try forsure, as it is healthier being that is has less fat, but it is kinda pricey. However, being that it is healthier I guess it is worth the extra money. I am not sure if I would buy it again, because it seems like a lot to spend one ice cream, I guess I would just maybe wait for a sale or something.
I was very happy to be selected to attend the Breyers Smooth and Dreamy ice cream tasting event. I tried all the flavours, and it wasn't until after my second scoop and it was announced that the ice cream was half the fat that I had realized. I almost could not believe that this sweet, delicious, creamy goodness was half the fat!
As far as flavors go:
Mocha Fudge Brownie: my personal favourite. the mocha takes the sweetness down a notch, making it perfect. little brownie chunks also add a nice texture change to the ice cream.
Dulce de Leche: second favourite. If you are a caramel lover, this is the ice cream for you!
Vanilla: always a classic. Stays true to its flavor and the creamy texture just makes it so much better.
Strawberries and Cream: A bit too sweet, and I personally perfer strawberry pieces rather than a swirl.
Chocolate: Tastes like a churned fudge-sicle!
The product is great. The only downside of it is its price. $9 at my local grocery store, it is definitely pricey for a bucket of ice cream. However, for people who are watching their weight and see ice cream as a rare chance for indulgence - this maximizes yummyness and minimizes guilt!
I was very excited to be chosen to review Breyers' new Smooth & Dreamy ice cream, as I will fully admit that the members of my household are addicted to ice cream. I chose the Dulce de Leche flavor and everyone in my house was pleased. This ice cream is as creamy as any other full-fat brand I have tried before. I like that they included thick ribbons of caramel into the ice cream as well. I, however, like a previous reviewer felt that something was a bit off in the flavor. To me the ice cream tasted a bit like butter, and that wasn't what I was going for in my ice cream. The other members of my house didn't seem to notice this, and were content to go in for seconds. The price of the ice cream is a major contention point for me. I would not pay almost $9 for ice cream, I don't care how good it is. I would definitely be willing to try another flavor of this brand should they go on sale (their website shows a much larger variety than appeared in my local grocery store).
Thanks to Breyers & The product review club for sending a free coupon my way to try this ice cream! I would definately consider myself an ice cream addict, so I like the idea of an ice cream that is 1/2 the fat.
I chose the Creamy Chocolate flavor. I found it impossible to tell it was only half the fat. Breyers did not compromise on taste! I loved how it melts in your mouth and you can stir it up to taste just like soft ice cream. It was very creamy and has an appealing texture. My family tried it as well and everyone was very satisfied. Love it!
The only thing would stop me from purchasing this next time I have an ice cream craving is the price. At 8.69 it is over double what I would usually pay for ice cream. Maybe for an occasional treat I will pick this up again but it is hard to justify spending that much money on a tub of ice cream when there are so many cheaper alternatives, even if it is delicious!
I was fortunate enough to be able to attend the tasting in Vancouver and had the opportunity to taste all of the flavours!
Breyers Smooth & Dreamy Ice Cream has half the fat than regular ice cream. I had the opportunity to taste five flavours: Creamy Chocolate, Dulce de Leche, Vanilla, Mocha Fudge Brownie and Strawberries and Cream. If you go on the website though, it seems as though they have a lot more than these five flavours in the Smooth and Dreamy line...which means that I might have to go out and buy another flavour to sample!
I found that the "plain" flavours (vanilla and chocolate) were by far the creamiest and you could barely tell that they tried to hack calories out of the ice cream. I heard some other tasters comment that these ones were too creamy, but I disagree. I found them to be perfectly velvety! If I had a craving for some sweet, full-fat ice cream, these two flavours would fulfill my craving for sure! I wouldn't feel like I cheaped out and went for a low-cal replacement.
The other three flavours (Mocha Fudge Brownie, Strawberries and Creme and Dulce de Leche) I felt missed the point a bit. The ice cream tasted good, but the extras like the caramel, strawberry and fudge that they mixed in tasted a bit "chemically" as if they sweetened it with aspartame or something similar to help keep the calories down.
Overall, I think they did a good job in attempting to keep the fat and calories down while still maintaining the integrity of ice cream, however, it would not be my first choice during a craving for ice cream. I am not a regular consumer (2-3 times a year) and like to go for the real-deal and not concern myself with the calorie consumption. I would say that this would make a great product for regular ice cream consumers that are looking to keep their habit a bit healthier.
I received this ice cream to test and loved it. I sampled all the flavors and picked up a strawberry for myself. I love that it is low fat, and best of all, it tastes just like regular ice cream. I thought the ice cream tasted very good quality.
