Delicious, cold ice cream is an indispensable companion on hot summer days. But sometimes it is corny unpleasant to eat because of the nasty taste and the presence of palm oil in the composition.
So that you can enjoy only the highest quality delicacy, we have found out which ice cream is the best to buy in 2020. And we have compiled a list of the best brands of ice cream without palm oil.
The rating is based on the results of testing carried out by Roskontrol specialists. They assess the safety in terms of microbiological and physicochemical indicators, organoleptic qualities and the reliability of the labeling of each subject, and then give an overall assessment of its quality. The top 7 contestants are ranked in no particular order, as each of them lacks palm oil.
7. Trading house "Kremlin"
Palm Oil Free Ice Cream Tested: "The choice of the Kremlin"
This is not the cheapest ice cream in this selection (its average price is 60 rubles), but it is one of the tastiest and safest. There is no milk powder in its composition, and, as the manufacturer assures, this product is made according to the original Soviet recipe of the 50s. The taste is rich, moderately sweet, with a slight bitterness of cocoa beans.
However, Roskontrol testing revealed that the protein content in the Kremlin's Choice is 23% lower than indicated in the label. And the glaze, although quite thick, has insignificant mechanical damage. If we forgive these shortcomings, then otherwise, in terms of organoleptic qualities, microbiological and physicochemical indicators, this ice cream is flawless.
6. Svitlogorye
Tested products: "Eskimo"
Roskontrol experts note the high safety of this product and the content of exclusively milk fat in the milk part. However, it was not without its disadvantages:
- The discrepancy between the actual mass fraction of fat in the milk part and indicated in the labeling is 0.4%. Downward.
- The glaze has mechanical damage.
- The indicator of dry milk residue is slightly higher than it is permissible for an ice cream. This parameter determines both the organoleptic characteristics and the nutritional value of ice cream in terms of milk protein content.
At the same time, users note that the ice cream from "Stevlogorya" has a pure creamy taste, the glaze is moderately sweet, with pleasant notes of cocoa.
5. Russian cold
Tests passed: ice cream "USSR", ice cream "USSR in a waffle cup"
According to microbiological parameters, this ice cream is in perfect order. It contains no vegetable fats and preservatives, however, there is no natural milk, only dry milk.
On the one hand, this is bad, since natural milk has a high content of vitamins. On the other hand, many of these vitamins are destroyed by mandatory pasteurization during ice cream production.
Another feature of the USSR ice cream is a high sugar content - 15.2%, although the packaging claims 14%. And in terms of fat content (15.6%), this ice cream is ahead of all other tested samples.
4. Vologda ice cream
Tested with good result "Vologda Plombir" in a waffle cup
No substances prohibited for ice cream, such as pesticides, mycotoxins and antibiotics, were found in one of the best brands of Russian ice cream. All the data indicated on the label of "Vologda ice cream" fully correspond to reality.
In addition, the ice cream has a pleasant creamy taste without an unpleasant aftertaste, a delicate aroma, and contains exclusively natural ingredients. The manufacturer used citrus dietary fiber as a structurant, which has beneficial prebiotic properties.
3. LLC "Khladokombinat No. 3"
Palm Oil Free Product: popsicle "GOST ice cream"
Fully complying with safety requirements, "GOST Ice Cream" is also distinguished by its low price compared to other participants in the rating of the highest quality ice cream. It costs an average of about 35-40 rubles, depending on the margin in the store.
In reviews on specialized sites, buyers praise the delicate creamy taste and composition of "GOST ice cream". However, this delicacy also has disadvantages: mechanical damage to the glaze, overrun below the permissible level for an ice cream and an increased content of dry non-fat milk residue.
2. Cow from Korenovka
Products recognized as quality: "Sundae in a waffle cup", "Sherbet"
After testing in the Roskontrol laboratory, experts found this ice cream almost flawless. It corresponds to the nutritional value stated on the package, has excellent organoleptic properties and does not contain non-dairy fat in its milk part. The only thing that caused complaints was the waffle cup, which often crumbles during transportation.
Please note that the popsicle "Lady from Korenovka" was on the black list of Roskontrol. The reason for this was the discrepancy between the composition of the glaze indicated in the marking and the actual one. It has been found to contain a high content of coconut or palm kernel oil.
