The functional frozen food category has been picking up pace here in the US, although in other markets it has been building and developing just as well. One of the standout parts of the world in this sort of thing is actually the Middle East, where there are a surprising amount of innovators in the space. The Real Scoop is one of those that we’ve just been introduced to, and it makes delicious-looking protein ice cream on a stick.
One of the standout products from The Real Scoop, specifically available in the United Arab Emirates, is the High Protein Madagascan Vanilla Ice Cream Stick. It features smooth Madagascan vanilla ice cream, weighing in at a heavy 90g each and a nutrition profile of 12g of protein and only 7g of net carbohydrates. The calories are still on the higher side at 225, as there is about 13g of fat per piece, although it does look like it’s worth it with the vanilla ice cream covered in almonds and a decadent milk chocolate.
The wider high-protein stick family from The Real Scoop includes many other mouthwatering options like Peanut Butter Crunch, Wild Strawberry, and Sea Salt Chocolate, with a couple of those flavors also coming in smaller 125ml cups. The Real Scoop is available exclusively through Noon Minutes in the UAE, where the convenient protein ice cream sticks cost around 19 AED (5.17 USD) and the snack-sized tubs cost 12.25 AED.
