Sundae Shoppe Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream 48 fl oz

Sundae Shoppe Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream in the 48 fl oz (1.5 quart) container is a refreshing, classic dessert featuring a cool peppermint-flavored green or white base with crunchy semi-sweet chocolate flakes distributed throughout.

Core Ingredients

The signature flavor profile relies on a balance of herbal mint notes and rich cocoa:

• Mint-Flavored Ice Cream Base: Consists of skim milk, cream, sugar, and corn syrup. It is infused with natural peppermint extract to provide a cooling sensation.

• Chocolate Chips/Flakes: Made from sugar, coconut oil, cocoa processed with alkali (Dutch-process), and milkfat. These are designed to have a low melting point so they snap easily when bitten.

• Coloring (Optional): Depending on the specific batch, it may contain Yellow 5 and Blue 1 to achieve the traditional "mint green" hue, though "Natural" versions may remain white.

• Stabilizers & Emulsifiers: Uses guar gum, carob bean gum, and mono- and diglycerides to ensure a smooth, scoopable texture and prevent ice crystals in the large 48 fl oz tub.

Energy & Nutritional Profile

A standard 2/3 cup serving (approx. 95g) from this multi-serve container provides a moderate energy yield:

Key Characteristics

• Cooling Effect: The peppermint oil provides a lingering "fresh" aftertaste that cuts through the richness of the dairy fat.

• Thin Flake Texture: Unlike large chunks, the chocolate in this variety is often shaved or flaked, ensuring a bit of chocolate is present in every spoonful.

• Value Format: The 48 fl oz tub is designed for family sharing or multiple servings, maintaining its texture well over several weeks if stored at a constant freezing temperature.
