May 31, 2022

Let’s be real: Who doesn’t love a good frozen treat, especially on a hot summer day? While there’s nothing better than a cool, refreshing popsicle when you’ve been soaking up the sun, what you may not want to soak up are all the unwanted sugars that fill those tasty treats. That’s where we come in.

To help you snack healthier, we’ve compiled a list of four delicious popsicle and other frozen treat brands that are perfect for the sweltering heat of summer.

Halo Top

Halo Top boasts a line of flavorful popsicles made with real fruit. The best part? They only have 35-90 calories. The pops come in five flavors: strawberry, coconut, lime, pineapple, and mango. The brand also just released three fruit sorbets in raspberry, mango, and strawberry flavors.

On top of that, they have keto options with 5-10 grams of net carbs per pint and 2-3 grams per pop. Their keto line comes in amazing flavors including turtle cheesecake, sea salt caramel, and more.

Yasso

Looking for something other than popsicles and ice cream bars? How about giving Greek yogurt a try? Yasso’s Greek yogurt bars have 4-7 grams of protein per serving and only 60-170 calories. Even better, the yogurt comes in a variety of fun flavors.

Tired of traditional bars? They also offer ice cream sandwiches, dipped bars, bite-sized ice cream called Poppables, and new mochi ice cream as well.

Good Pop

The only thing better than a popsicle on a hot day is a popsicle that also does some real good in the world. Good Pop’s brand strives to inspire sweetness by donating $1 to charity for every person who pledges to do something good for others on their website.

Not only that, but their popsicles are also organic and plant based with responsibly sourced ingredients. Their products are dairy and gluten free, and they have a line called “Cleaned Up Classics” which include reimagined healthier favorites such as the red, white, and blue bomb pops, fudgesicles, and more.

Solero

Solero has a wide range of delicious popsicles and ice cream bars, and they use natural or organic ingredients including sun-ripened crushed fruits. Their fruit pops contain only 40-120 calories per pop, and their flavor variety is amazing.

No matter what treat you go for, these brands will all help you feeling healthy and happy this summer. So pop on by your local grocery store and treat yourself to a popsicle!
