Today, Kevin and I indulged in Häagen-Dazs' latest offerings: Vanilla Caramel Pecan and New York Strawberry Cheesecake ice creams. Priced at $4.29 each at Meijer, these new flavors come in 14 oz containers, noted for not being full pints.
1. Vanilla Caramel Pecan:
- Flavor Profile: This gluten-free treat combines creamy vanilla ice cream with gooey caramel sauce and caramelized toasted pecans.
- Caloric Value: With 340 calories per 2/3 cup (129g) serving, totaling 880 calories per container, it's a satisfying yet indulgent option.
- Texture and Taste: Häagen-Dazs excels with its creamy texture and robust caramel flavor, accented by crunchy, candied pecans.
2. New York Strawberry Cheesecake:
- Flavor Profile: Featuring velvety cheesecake ice cream swirled with strawberry sauce and soft spiced graham cracker crust pieces.
- Caloric Value: Each 2/3 cup (132g) serving packs 300 calories, totaling 810 calories for the container, offering a lighter alternative.
- Texture and Taste: While promising, the strawberry flavor is subtle, blending delicately with cheesecake notes. Graham cracker pieces provide a pleasing texture but don't overpower the palate.
Vanilla Caramel Pecan emerges as the standout choice for its rich caramel flavor and crunchy pecans, making it ideal for nutty caramel enthusiasts. Häagen-Dazs continues to impress with its premium quality and indulgent flavors, catering to discerning ice cream aficionados.
