The Real Moo Review - Yummy Ice-cream CAN Be Healthy For You Too!
Recently, we had the pleasure of tasting some ice-cream from The Real Moo (including some yummy samples!).
Many of us probably already know the health benefits that probiotics brings, like promoting good gut health and reducing the severity of certain allergies (among many other benefits). But do you know the health benefits of prebiotics? Prebiotics can enhance and strengthen our immune system, help increase the absorption of calcium and magnesium and more!
You'll be pleased to know that unlike your regular ice-cream, the ones from The Real Moo contain less sugar and fat and comes loaded with probiotics and prebiotics. The cherry on the cake (ice-cream)? They're all super high in dietary fibre! It's no wonder that they're accredited by the Health Promotion Board to be a ‘Healthier Choice’ option!
Here's what we think of them!
1. Coffee Latte
I had imagined this to taste bitter (as with many other coffee-intense ice-cream/sweet treats) but this one was just right for me yet not too sweet. I liked how this almost felt like I was having a cup of iced coffee, but milder. An overall pleasant cup of coffee latte gelato ice-cream!
Rating: 4/5
2. Double Chocolate
Only Belgian couverture chocolate is used in their Double Chocolate gelato ice-cream and as with all their offerings, The Real Moo only uses fresh, natural and premium ingredients. The Double Chocolate gelato ice-cream was creamy yet not too heavy on the palate. Many of my colleagues thought that this was really yummy and I do agree with them. However, the chocolate lover in me did wish that this was a little "more chocolatey" and more cocoa-intense. And I know this is actually possible! The friendly people at The Real Moo are able to customize a "Triple Chocolate" one for you if you would like!*

3. Creamy Vanilla
There must be something The Real Moo is doing right, their gelato ice-cream are all not heavy on the palate yet remain true to their names. This Creamy Vanilla was indeed creamy and very vanilla-y yet not heavy on the palate. We absolutely love this one! This should be one popular flavour with both the young and old and would be great party pleasers.

4. Salted Caramel
I feel that Salted Caramel is a love-or-hate flavour with many. You usually either love it to bits or just not really into it due to its conflicting sweet and salty taste. I happened to be one who's pretty neutral with such flavours. But I found myself enjoying this quite a bit. The slight saltiness cuts into the sweetness of this ice-cream which made this Salted Caramel gelato ice-cream very delightful to have. Though, a Salted Caramel fanatic in our office did feel that the caramel taste in this one could be just a little stronger.
Rating: 4/5
5. Matcha
This was a creamy and rich gelato. There was a nice slight bitter Matcha aftertaste to every spoonful of this Matcha gelato goodness. Real Matcha green tea powder was used to make this Matcha gelato ice-cream so you get the rich Matcha taste in this one. Done with the right sweetness, and not too bitter, this one sits right with most of us.

BONUS MENTION:
We received a few other samples (currently not for sale on our website yet, stay tuned!) and one of the flavours we received really caught us off-guard (in a good way)!
It's none other than the Ginger gelato ice-cream.
Yes! You read it right. One of our favourites included the "peculiar-sounding" Ginger gelato ice-cream. It sounded weird, at first, to us when we first saw this flavour in the lot of ice-cream sent by The Real Moo. However, after tasting this, we were sold! It was so light and refreshing. It tasted a little like the ginger tea but with a stronger ginger taste. Also, do you know that ginger has lots of health benefits? For example, ginger has anti-inflammatory effects that can help with Osteoarthritis and it can also help fight many infections. Health food in my sweet treat? Yes, please! However, this was one of the samples sent to us and is currently not available on our website yet so stay tuned!
Rating: 5/5
In all, we enjoyed these gelato ice-creams from The Real Moo a lot, especially so as we had them mid-day on a hot day. 😄
