A proudly local brand by The Superfood Grocer, Super Scoops believes that their treats should both taste good and do good. Using coconut milk and coconut sugar, their ice creams are not only vegan, but also have a lower glycemic index and boast zero cholesterol. Plus, the creamery supports local coconut farmers, too.

Low-calorie ice cream, anyone? Alt Scoops' tantalising flavours range from just 61 to 104 calories per serve (each pint has four serves), so put on your favourite binge-worthy show and indulge. Utilising creamy, silky Oatly oat milk, each pint is smooth and rich. Opting for oat milk rather than cow's milk is also great for the environment, as oat milk production has fewer greenhouse gas emissions and requires less land and water per glass.

The Alt Scoops team is constantly working on R&D, regularly churning out new flavours like cookie butter and rum-infused banana foster. Try them all—they're guilt-free, after all!

Fans of gianduja will love the Golden Goodness, a roasted hazelnut ice cream delight covered in 55 per cent single origin dark chocolate and chopped hazelnuts for added texture.
