This past year has compelled us to re-examine our way of life and has made us prioritise health and wellness. Our evolving lifestyles don’t necessarily have room for all the calorific milk, sugar, and heavy cream that a scoop of ice cream contains, temptation notwithstanding.
At the same time, a host of homegrown artisanal ice-cream brands have cropped up. These small-batch iced treats swap sugar for stevia, use almond and oat milk instead of milk, are 100 per cent natural, and contain a healthy dose of probiotics and proteins. Ice-creams, gelato, sorbet, and popsicles – however you take yours, these are the brands to go to.
