Smooze Simply Coconut Fruit Ice 65 ml (Pack of 6)

Product Information

There is also a mango and coconut flavour which is 48% mango juice and 40% coconut milk. This is a slightly better option with some additional nutrients from the mango juice. Nutrition (per 2.2-ounce ice treat): 70 calories, 2.5g fat, 11g carbs, 0g fiber, 10g sugars (includes 8g added sugars), 0g protein.* Coconut + Pineapple When assessing how healthy something is, I can’t help but take away points for a product that is on the ‘health food’ bandwagon and claims to be healthy when it doesn’t have anything good to offer. Sugar Freezies get the wooden spoon award from me.

You get bonus points for adding a vegetable (like cucumber or spinach) but honestly, it will be such a small amount it isn’t going to contribute to your daily 5+ serves. What adding a veggie will do though, is; Ingredients: 47% pink guava juice (from puree), 40% coconut milk, 13% other ingredients (natural cane sugar, fruit pectin, citric acid, natural flavors, ascorbic acid). Pineapple Smooze is an excellent source of vitamin C – a nutrient that aids the body in warding off infection

Ingredients: Coconut Milk 80%, Natural Cane Sugar, Maltodextrin, Fructose, Stabilisers (Tara Gum, Xanthan Gum), Natural Coconut Flavouring, Salt. Blending whole fruit for home made icy poles means you get all the fibre from the fruit too so the sugars are truly natural (in their natural form) and won’t contribute to your added sugar allowance. Coconut fats are good for you. Simply Coconut is higher in calorie content than the fruit varieties of Smooze but we’re still talking less than the same sized serve of ice cream Plant-based or vegan options have been increasingly popular in recent years in Singapore and South East Asia as individuals become more health-conscious and look for alternatives to traditional dairy-based frozen desserts. While it is common to know that a relatively large percentage of consumers in Asia are intolerant to dairy or gluten, one would be glad to know that they can continue enjoying frozen desserts and treats with Smooze. These ones use only natural flavourings which is a good thing. Coconut milk isn’t nearly as nutritious as the flesh, but you’ll still get some trace minerals. Smooze Fruit Ice are still high in added sugars and the gums can cause gastrointestinal upset in some people (especially those who have allergies to dairy, soy, wheat or corn).

Smooze makes a healthy, deliciously-refreshing, anytime treat for adults and children alike; after yoga, gym, work or school, after dinner, reading a book, watching TV, by the pool, at a BBQ, or anytime you feel like a guilt-free, dairy-free, nutritious refreshment. Guaranteed to delight your children or your inner child; we think you’ll fall in love with Smooze. Remember, that when we eat healthy whole foods most of the time, there is room the occasional treat. Treats don’t have to be the healthiest of the bunch. But if your family enjoys icy poles often, it is worth making the switch to something a little more nourishing. I am sure that no-one is in denial that zooper doopers are a healthy choice. I thought I’d include them here for comparison sake. A zooper dooper icy pole is just flavoured sugar water.

If you’ve tried a Pina Colada, you’ll know what I mean Smooze was first developed in 2007 by a family based team of people who loved Coconut in all its form and wanted to bring the best of this delicious & nutritious fruit to consumers across the world. Coconuts are recognised as one of the richest sources of lauric acid, a medium chain fatty acid that promotes an increase in the metabolic rate, an improvement in digestion & nutrient absorption, and the retention of omega 3 fatty acids. Lauric acid is also highly regarded for anti-bacterial properties, which encourages a strong and healthy Immune System. Are Smooze Fruit Lollies Healthy?
