Frozen dessert recipes and on plan Trim Healthy Mama Ice Cream that can be store bought.
I scream, you scream, we all scream for Trim Healthy Mama ice cream! Today in our THM A to Z post, we are discussing all things ice cream (and other frozen treats).
How ironic that this is being published on the first day of fall and it is still in the nineties here. Hopefully some of you are experiencing some nice and brisk fall weather. I don’t know about you but I eat ice cream year round. Ice cream knows no season in my THM home.

Trim Healthy Mama Ice Cream
Ice cream is one of my favorite things. Really I love all forms of frozen treats – ice cream, popsicles, frozen yogurt. The thought of not being able to indulge in a cold and creamy dessert is something that I luckily didn’t have to worry about on my THM journey.
There are lots of Trim Healthy Mama options to satisfy your desire for a frozen dessert. And there is something for everyone. Homemade and extraordinary, homemade and super easy and of course some store bought options for our Drive Thru Sue mamas.
Store Bought THM Frozen Dessert Options
Simple is key for some of us most of the time and everyone needs easy at least once in a while. I am not shy about admitting that I am not a big THM baker. Not that you bake ice cream but you get my point.
I don’t mind cooking and although I do love baking and making dessert, I don’t find joy in THM baking. Not sure why, I just don’t. So I work hard on finding THM treats that I can purchase ready to eat at the store (or at least very easy to create recipes).
THM ice cream is no different. I like having some store bought options that can satisfy my sweet tooth in a pinch. So here are a few options if you are in the same boat that I am.
Ready to Eat THM Frozen Treats
Halo Top – This is in the regular ice cream area at my grocery store and sold by the pint.
Fuel Type: FP (Meaning you can eat it with a S or an E meal)
Serving Size: 1/2 Cup
Notes: This item does have real cane sugar. It is a small amount which is why it is permitted on plan as a personal choice. It should be an occasional treat not an every day thing.
Sundae Shoppe Protein Pints – This is similar to Halo Top but sold exclusively at Aldi.
Fuel Type: FP (Meaning you can eat it with a S or an E meal)
Serving Size: 1/2 Cup
Notes: Same as the Halo Top – This item does have real cane sugar. It is a small amount which is why it is permitted on plan as a personal choice. It should be an occasional treat not an every day thing.
*This brand has protein Popsicles too that are very good and also a personal choice.
Trim Healthy Mama Frozen Treat Recipes
There are also lots of other ways to indulge in a healthy and on plan treat if you don’t want to purchase a personal choice item at the store.
By making your own dessert, you control the ingredients and can often times save money (because although lovely, those little pints can increase your grocery bill).
Several of your favorite THM Bloggers sent me their favorite frozen treat recipes to share with you today. Here is the list!
Strawberry Lemonade Bai Sorbet by Protecting Your Pennies
An easy blender sorbet combining fruit and Bai Strawberry lemonade. This sweet and sour treat is balanced by dollop of Reddi Whip.
Maple Bacon Icecream by TJ’s Taste
Maple and bacon, enough said right! I love savory and sweet combos and TJ’s taste has made that into an icecream that is on plan!
Lemon Berry Popsicles by Country Girl Cookin
I am definitely going to try these delicious popsicles for my family. They have just a few ingredients and sound so tasty.
Cookies N Cream Ice cream by Sweet E’s Yummy Creations
Cookies N Cream is one of my go to flavor choices! I can’t believe we can have a THM on plan version. I have been doing THM for years now and I am continuously amazed.
Peanut Butter Doughsicles by Briana Thomas
Peanut butter cookie dough on a stick. Can you think of anything better? And Briana says these are pretty light so if you can’t stop at one, that is ok!
