I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream For ‘Healthy’ Ice Cream!
With many companies shrinking in size as their bottom lines dwindle and demand for their products wane, one company in Southern California is experiencing the opposite. Arctic Zero, an ice cream-like frozen dessert, is growing in many ways, with new stores being added weekly, sales continuing to move upward, and new flavors being released. Arctic Zero is a protein shake in an ice cream form that is appealing to health foodies, calorie counters, protein aficionados, diabetics, and those that are lactose intolerant.

Introduced to the market in late 2008, Arctic Zero is a product that fills the healthy ice cream gap at natural food stores. Compared to a protein shake, Arctic Zero has 20 grams of whey protein concentrate, but it offers up an all natural 136 calories for an entire pint. Its consumers enjoy a guilt-free, gluten-free and fat-free experience. Along with health foodies, calorie counters, and protein aficionados, it seems 2 new groups are weighing in on this new treat. “Those who are sensitive to sugar and those who are lactose intolerant love our product,” says CMO Garrett Blood. “In addition, only up to 25% of the total carbohydrates and sugars in Arctic Zero are absorbed.”
Arctic Zero’s wide appeal for these reasons has allowed the company to add stores on an almost weekly basis with recent store chains such as Bristol Farms, Henry’s, and Whole Foods carrying it. With interest from other natural retailers for a healthy frozen dessert (http://www. myarcticzero. com), Arctic Zero should be available locally to most consumers by summer, however until then the alternative is to order it online at Amazon. com. “We get calls from customers in states like Michigan and upstate New York, where temperatures are in the single digits, asking when Arctic Zero will be available in their local stores” says Blood. “But until more stores begin carrying Arctic Zero, the best solution for some is to order it online through Amazon.”
Ordering Arctic Zero online also allows consumers to try new flavors before they are released to the retailer. Mint Chocolate Cookie is one such flavor that can be ordered on Amazon and will be available at local retailers by late March. Flavors that customers can currently find in their local stores are Vanilla Maple, Chocolate, Strawberry Banana, and Chocolate Peanut Butter. By late summer two additional flavors, Cookies & Cream and Coffee, will make their debut for the masses to enjoy. So by the time summer is here, Arctic Zero will have everyone screaming for healthy ice cream (http://www. myarcticzero. com).
Arctic Zero, Inc. is a Temecula, California-based business that specializes in low calorie and nutritious frozen dessert products.
