Meh. Artificial tasting, pretty bland, definitely not satisfying.
I appreciate all of your reviews of these! I found Halo Top's chocolate almond crunch pretty bland, did you try that one? I'm curious if this one was similar...
It's a shame they've been disappointing to you so far, but I can't say I'm surprised. I love Enlightened, but I mainly love them for the mix-ins and swirls. As a base, they definitely are less sweet.
If you haven't picked up the Bananas Foster I wouldn't recommend you do so. I loved it and I can see a lot of other people loving it, but it definitely has more of an artificial taste to it. It's like a more buttery/thicker version of the salted caramel swirl. It's better, but the flavor is still there. I keep going back and forth honestly the more I have it.0 -

I like the Halo Top chocolate almond actually... it's much more satisfying than this. At least it's not bland.
I think that's my main issue with Enlightened, the swirl is what makes them sweet but the swirl tastes artificial to me (I forgot that I did try salted caramel once). I did like the chocolate chip cookie dough more than Halo Top though.2 -

Yeah, it seems like their newer pints are trying to copy Halo Top too much being lower calorie but probably failing. The birthday cake and the cold brew were honestly amazing for not having mix ins and weren't artificial, but all the others (Even the fudge brownie and Giant exclusive half-baked knockoff flavor) were very underwhelming and boring.0 -
Found a box at Big Lots for $1, assuming they are actually not sold anymore elsewhere. Not bad. Can't really taste the hazelnuts frankly. Horrible macros and junk ingredients for the calories though, so even at this price... won't buy again.0 -
I do like that one.4 -

Chocolate Almond is my 3rd favorite flavors of Halo Top, behind Birthday Cake and Salted Caramel.
I recently experimented with my DIY Halo Top Recipe to create a similar a cherry amaretto flavor with coconut milk instead of regular milk, and it turned out really good!

I agree, you can't post that and not include a recipe!
Also, I went into the Peeps store today and noticed sugar free peeps, have these always been a thing? Do stores sell them?

i had them last week - i didn't like them very much0 -
Found enlightened at weis. They have more variety than giant. I purchased red velvet and birthday cake.
Eating the Red Velvet now & it's delicious! The Birthday Cake is decent, but I am not sure if I like that one more or Halo Top. I'll have to try the Enlightened version again. What would make the Red Velvet pint better is some mini chunks like Turkey Hill's.0 -

Where did you buy them? They're not as sweet but I kind of liked that, they also seem more dense like an actual marshmallow.kellyjellybellyjelly wrote: »Found enlightened at weis. They have more variety than giant. I purchased red velvet and birthday cake.

I agree, chocolate cake pieces would have made it phenomenal.0 -

Oops pic didn't post 10/10 best dunkin donut I've had so far. Usually I don't like them because the base they use is pretty boring and bland but this one is made of croissant.0 -

My favorite red velvet ice cream is Blue Bunny thus far. Mmmm I can only find it at Karns though. I'll have to find the Turkey Hill one.
