Description

Light vanilla ice cream is a delicious and refreshing frozen preparation that combines the classic flavor of vanilla with a lower amount of fat and calories compared to traditional ice cream. Its texture is smooth and creamy, ideal for those looking to enjoy a sweet dessert without compromising a balanced diet.

The origin of vanilla ice cream dates back to antiquity, when natural ingredients such as milk, cream, and vanilla extracts were used to create cold desserts. Vanilla, native to Mexico and cultivated since pre-Columbian times, provides a characteristic aroma and flavor that have made this dessert one of the most popular in the world.

From a nutritional point of view, light vanilla ice cream offers lower amounts of saturated fats and sugars, making it easier to include in low-calorie diets or for those who wish to control fat intake without giving up the pleasure of a good dessert. Furthermore, it provides calcium and proteins from milk, although in a lower concentration than conventional ice cream.

In different Hispanic American countries, this ingredient can be found under various names such as light vanilla ice cream, low-fat vanilla ice cream, or simply dietetic vanilla ice cream, all of them referring to healthier and lighter versions of the classic vanilla ice cream.
