    Alec's Ice Cream launches Culture Cup products

    Alec's Ice Cream introduced Culture Cup product line.

    This ice cream cup is under 160 calories and 10g or less of unrefined cane sugar. It features ice cream, over a billion raw live probiotics plus prebiotics, and a crackable dark chocolatey shell. Every Culture Cup is single-serve, snackable, and sustainably sourced while being a ridiculously delicious, ultra-clean-label indulgence that does the gut biome a solid, the company said.

    Each cup is made with grass-fed A2 dairy known to be easier on digestion and richer in nutrients like omega-3s and CLAs. Made without gums, sugar alcohols, seed oils, artificial flavors, or gluten-just real, clean, sustainably sourced organic ingredients. Since this is an Alec's Ice Cream product, 90% of the base ice cream ingredients are 3rd party verified regenerative, a revolutionary agricultural movement that works with nature versus against it.

    The ice cream cup is available in the following flavors: Madagascar Vanilla Bean, Peanut Butter Cup, Dary Choclate Honeycomb Crunch and Chocolate Covered Strawberry (exclusive at Whole Foods Market).

    "This year, real dairy is making a comeback and we're so excited to lead the charge with Culture Cup, which deliciously combines function, quality, and taste through animal-based nutrition that delivers real, impactful benefits," said Alec Jaffe, Founder of Alec's Ice Cream. "As gut-health continues to take center stage our pre/probiotic line serves as proof that our consumers don't have to compromise on taste, health, and sustainability-they can have it all."

    Whole Foods Market, Wegman's, Fresh Thyme, Target, and other natural retailers will offer a selection of Culture Cup in stores at $9.49 for a 4-pack.
