THE SUGAR-FREE variety of artisanal ice cream brand Sebastian’s Ice Cream was spurred on by a personal story. READ:
“My dad was diabetic, and so it was drilled into me early on what life with diabetes was like: how eating sugar could literally do them great harm, and watching people with diabetes have to live without foods everyone takes for granted,” said Ian Carandang, founder and resident. “When I started making ice cream for a living, it was important to come up with an ice cream that felt and tasted just like regular ice cream without compromising the quality.
The post said that the Cookie Dough Ice Cream is made with sugar-free vanilla ice cream mixed with sugar-free unbaked chocolate-chip cookie dough with walnuts. The ice cream and cookie dough are sweetened with isomalt, and it uses Hershey’s sugar-free chocolate chips sweetened with maltitol. Mr. Carandang mentioned that the ice cream contains both isomalt and maltitol, and provided links to this writer for more information about the artificial sweeteners.
“As it is with most sugar substitutes, there is no perfect response as every study one finds that says that a sweetener is healthy, another one can be found that says it causes side effects and health risks,” said Mr. Carandang. “What I can say is that this is the best combination I found that was able to keep prices at a reasonable level —
“I wouldn’t call it a healthy food. I would call it an indulgence that is accessible to people who can’t eat sugar for one reason or another.” The rest of the ingredients still include items like egg yolks, milk, and cream. “It may have fewer calories because it doesn’t have sugar, but it is definitely still calorific.”
