Frozen desserts like ice cream are traditionally calorie dense and contain a high amount of sugar. Ice cream is a dairy product and offers some benefits like calcium and a few grams of protein; check the nutrition facts on the product packaging for exact amounts. That鈥檚 not to say frozen dairy desserts are a healthy part of a regular diet, though, since most calories in ice cream are in the form of fat and processed sugar. Often ice cream is eaten plain, as with the ever-popular flavors chocolate and vanilla, but it鈥檚 also common now to include multiple mix-ins like candy and nuts, or toppings like hot fudge. A product with lots of these additional ingredients, for example Snickers ice cream, will likely have a high number of total calories, as indicated on the calorie chart. Items with low calories are made with low-fat milk or, in the case of soft serve, have more air integrated during the mixing process. Ice cream made from alternative vegan milk, such as soy milk and coconut milk, can be found, but these will still contain just as much sugar and therefore also have low nutritional value.
