Breyers Smooth & Dreamy Frozen Dessert Reviews

Description

Breyers Smooth & Dreamy delivers all the decadence we crave from regular ice cream, but with half the fat and calories. The secret lies in its Cream Press SystemTM - a process that breaks apart the cream into smaller droplets and distributes them more evenly throughout the ice cream to deliver a decadent taste and texture. Whether your tastes are simple or you like something more indulgent, Breyers Smooth & Dreamy Ice Cream comes in five yummy flavours that’ll suit everyone’s preference: Natural Vanilla Bean, Creamy Chocolate, Mocha Fudge Brownie, Strawberries & Cream, and Dulce de Leche.

    I was already a big fan of Breyers to begin with -- their natural vanilla bean ice cream with the full fat is one of my favourites to eat!

    That being said, I COULD tell the difference between the full fat and the half, but it wasn't so obvious, that I'd you could switch and not feel deprived.

    It doesn't taste like a watery (cheap) ice cream, and for the price of $8.50 (yeah, seriously), it better not!

    I tried the Vanilla Bean one, but I'm going back to buy the Strawberry one to do a taste comparison of which one I like better (as I do find Vanilla ice creams on the sweet side, and this one was not).

    It is pricey, but I eat a scoop every week or less, so it actually lasts quite a while in my freezer (not a huge binge eater of ice cream).

    I didn't taste any graininess in the ice cream either (that's what you get from cheap ice creams that just whip in air), and it was wholly satisfying.

    P.S. I did receive it as a free sample from the ChickAdvisor club, so I may be biased.. but truthfully it was yummy.

    I was lucky enough to be chosen to sample a free Breyers Smooth and Dreamy ice cream product. I chose the Mocha Fudge Brownie Ice Cream. Wow, it tasted really good!! I couldn't even tell it was half the fat, which makes it my favourite ice cream now since I don't have to worry how many calories are in it! I really tasted the difference in their new creamy technology. I would definately buy this again, and I am going to try the rest of the flavours as well! Two of my friends are already hooked on it as well as I told them to try it. I would have to say that this is the best Breyers ice cream they have ever made!

    Breyers Smooth & Dreamy is exactly that...smooth & dreamy!!!!!! I already loved Breyers before but it just got a whole lot better!!!!!!!!! I tried the Chocolate flavour and ooh la la, it was amazing!!!!!! Compared to full fat/full calorie ice cream, you can't tell the difference! This is truly an innovative technology that Breyers has created and I would definitely buy it again. Dreamy, creamy ice cream without the guilt that comes with full fat/calorie ice cream. Breyers has just outdone themselves with this product, definitely 5 stars...way to go Breyers!!!!!!!!!! Just in time for summer!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am excited to try all the flavours!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I am a huge fan of Breyers and so when I got to sample this new product compliments of the Product Review Club, I was over the moon. Although the Mocha Fudge Brownie ice cream is officially low-fat, it tasted positively decadent and epitomizes a guilt-FREE pleasure. Makes a sensible alternative to higher fat ice creams because the taste is still THAT good.

    I liked the mix of flavours, the texture and that it wasn't too sugary. It's on sale right now, so I plan to buy more and will definitely recommend it around.

    I got the chance to sample the ice cream for free through the Product Review Club, and it happened to be on sale for $3.99 when I picked mine up (regular $7.99), so along with my Straberries and Cream ice cream, I picked up the chocolate for my husband (and for me to taste!).
    I had my doubts about a low-fat ice cream, but Breyers did not disappoint! The ice cream was surprisingly creamy and DID NOT taste fat-free at all! Even the strawberry swirled in the vanilla was surprisingly fresh tasting, and weren't too sugary like many strawberry desserts are. It was definitely creamier than ANY low-fat ice cream I've ever had - even better than some regular ice creams I've tasted! The chocolate didn't disappoint either - creamy and super chocolatey! I will definitely be recommending this to my friends, and will be going back to try the novelty items that are offered in the line as well!

    I had the chance to go to the Chick Advisor Breyers' Happy Hour Ice Cream party. It was a great event, full of ice cream themed martinis and manicures. While at the party I sampled the Dulce de Leche and Mocha Fudge Brownie flavours. The Dulce de Leche was a clear winner for me. It doesn't skimp on caramel swirl, and has enough flavour to satisfy a traditionally chocolate flavour fan like me. The Mocha Fudge Brownie was enjoyable as well, with enough chunks of brownie to satisfy the Ben and Jerry's fan. I couldn't help wishing they had left the Mocha out of the Fudge Brownie, since the coffee flavour over powered the chocolate flavour.

    Overall this is a great guilt free ice cream product

    I was lucky enough to be able to sample a free Breyers Smooth and Dreamy ice cream product. I chose the Triple Chocolate Chip ice cream bar. What a fantastic decision I made! These bars retail for $7.49 at the grocery store which I would normally find to be too much for an ice cream product, but for a special treat, these ice cream bars are worth it! Also, he box comes with 6 bars which I find also makes the product worth the money, considering many companies only include 4 bars.

    The chocolatey flavour so good, and not chemically tasting like a lot of low calorie/low-fat ice cream products are. I would certainly consider this ice cream bar to be of high quality, and far worth the price of it. The texture of the ice cream is really smooth, and there are just the right amount of chocolate chips within it. The chocolate dip around the ice cream bar is just as fantastic as the rest of the ice cream bar is.

    If I was given this ice cream bar without being told what it was, never would I have known that it was a low-calorie ice cream. I think that the taste and quality is comparable to other high quality ice cream bars that are loaded with fat and calories.

    I would certainly recommend this product to anyone I meet, and it has officially become my new go-to treat when I deserve to splurge a little on a snack.

    I got a free trial sample of Breyers Smooth & Dreamy, so I picked up vanilla. I like the concept of the creation of this special ice cream, however, was not WOWed by the texture. It is too "foamy" for my liking, almost like a "whipped" cream ice cream instead of a denser fudgier ice cream. It's not for me unfortunately.

    I recently attended the Breyers taste-testing event and my favourite flavour was Mocha Fudge Brownie. I love coffee flavoured ice cream and this one was delicious! The coffee flavours are definitely stronger than the chocolate flavours which I really liked. The mini brownies in the ice cream were a nice surprise, as well as finding out that Smooth & Dreamy had half the fat of regular ice cream! It's also a bit more expensive than regular ice cream but I think this would make a nice splurge once in a while!

    I tried Breyers Smooth & Dreamy for the first time and it was great!! I'm a HUGE fan of ice cream (my first ever job was at Dairy Queen, which helped to feed my addiction). I've tried light and low-cal ice cream before and I always thought you could taste the difference. But what's really cool about Smooth & Dreamy is that it tastes just as good as regular ice cream, but it's only half the fat! I tried 2 flavours: Coffee Fudge Brownie and Creamy Chocolate and they were both delicious! The price is a bit expensive for ice cream, but it's worth it!


    Also, I very highly recommend looking at the recipes on the Breyer's website - they tell you how to make all kinds of ice cream cakes that look fantastic!
