Alec’s Ice Cream earns strong reviews for rich, ultra-creamy texture, inventive flavors like Honey Blueberry Lavender, Matcha Chocolate Chip, and Peanut Butter Fudge Honeycomb, and A2 organic dairy that many find gentler on digestion. Reviews also flag drawbacks: several flavors skew too sweet or lavender-forward, occasional thin mix-in texture or sparse crumbles, a few note stomach upset from gums, and sweetness/nutrition concerns; overall, the brand is praised as top-tier but with flavor-intensity and formulation quirks to consider.

This is the best pistachio ice cream I've had in the US. I can taste the high quality of the ingredients in every bite, and the flavors are very well balanced. I love how many pistachios there are throughout, and they're the perfect texture. I also appreciate that most or all of their ice cream is gluten free. As someone who eats ice cream multiple times daily, I love that I've found their brand and there are so many options for me to try.

It didn’t really taste much of anything other than the dark chocolate part. the portions are quite small for what you’re paying for. The texture of the ice cream was strange - definitely not ice cream like. It doesn’t taste bad nor is the texture bad, but I wouldn’t buy this again. I absolutely love the clean ingredients though, a very guilt free experience.

Recently picked up the probiotic culture cups in the mint chocolate cookie flavor. Love the size, the mint chocolate flavor is really well done, and I am excited to try the others!

This ice cream is amazing. The pistachio are candied. The olive oil has a nice flavor and the chocolate specs add a nice bit of sweetness. My mom, who is neither a fan of chocolate nor ice cream, ate a carton in one sitting. Also, the fact that it’s made with A2 milk makes it great on your stomach.

I prefer the single serving cups in order to pace myself when it comes to eating ice cream. These are so good! The one downside is that its not easy to eat straight out of the freezer. You do have to let it thaw a little in order to break into it or else your eating it was one giant piece. The honeycomb crunch is perfect for that texture.

I've been loving the little ice cream cups with the crunchy chocolate top. I've tried the vanilla and just bought the mint cookie. Both are delicious, a perfect serving size for a little treat and I love that the ingredients are clean. I want to try a pint next time. These were hard to find, but I'm seeing the brand more and more lately.

Super high quality, it is my favorite grocery store ice cream brand. Tastes very thick and indulgent - it's rich, I usually only have a little bit at a time. Not insanely sugary or fake tasting. I feel like I get my money's worth because it's meant to be savored. Wish they had more flavors!

I tried the pistachio crunch ice cream and was obsessed! I love the creaminess of the ice cream and the amount of mix ins that were included in the ice cream as well! If you're a fan of pistachio ice cream you will love it!

We wanted to host a fun ice cream social style party but I wanted to support a regenerative and more ingredient-conscious brand. I came across Alec's and it was love at first bite. While they don't have as many crazy flavors as Jeni's or Ben & Jerry's I trust their ingredients and A2 milk

The best ice cream available in a grocery store. Milk comes from Alexandre Family Farms in Petaluma, California, and it's organic, grass pastured, and sustainable. The maple cardamom candied pecan is my absolute favourite, and it must be everyone else's too, because it's so elusive in the grocery store. Also love the matcha chocolate chip, the palm springs banana date shake, and the coffee toffee. Recently tried the culture cups too which are good but not as good as the ice cream.

Alec’s Honeycomb Peanut Butter Fudge Ice Cream is pure indulgence with a purpose. The flavor is rich and nostalgic — creamy peanut butter swirls, crunchy honeycomb bits, and ribbons of fudge that taste homemade. Knowing it’s made with regenerative organic ingredients makes it even better — dessert that actually supports the planet. It’s the kind of ice cream you savor slowly, feeling good about every bite.

I like this brand because they have organic ice cream that is better for the planet than other ice creams. The honey blueberry lavender and the meyer lemon cookie flavors are mine and my partner's favorites. He tells me this is his favorite ice cream brand now.

Some of the best ice cream I've had. Their matcha choc chip and pb honeycomb 👩🍳💋 Made with A2 milk from Alexandre's family farm. Good for digestion. Good for planet. Stop reading this and go get some.

I unexpectedly found Alec's Ice Cream at my local Sprouts Market. I decided to give it a try and see what I thought. Clearly folks are trying it, because the only flavor choice I had was the Lemon Cookie. The ;price ($6.99 on sale) was more than I would usually pay, but into the cart it went and home it went with me. The lemon cookie looked delicious when I opened it up and peeled back the protective covering. It looked like lemon, delicious tart and sweet lemon. It did not disappoint after I tasted this new ice cream. Smooth, with bits of lemon cookie and I could swear there were bits of lemon peel blended in. My first taste ended up being ½ the container. No one else in the house was able to taste it as I finished it the next morning for breakfast. Truly delicious - only reason for a 4 rating is the cost.

I grabbed Alec’s Ice Cream while I was in Sprouts and now I’m completely addicted to this brand, especially the peanut butter flavor. It’s really creamy and has chocolatey honeycomb pieces throughout. It’s so good, definitely giving this an enthusiastic YES!

I adore vanilla ice cream, but wanted to try something new this week. I came across this on Whole Foods weekly deals and had mixed feelings. I enjoy matcha, but would I enjoy it as an ice cream flavor with chocolate? On impulse, I decided to buy two - just in case I fell in love with it. And I did! Now I can't stop gobbling it up and am craving more! Vanilla? Who's she? I don't know her anymore!

I'm impressed by the ice creams produced by Alec's Ice Cream! Not only do they sound delicious and interesting, they taste pretty good too. They are made with real and great ingredients - I really liked that they are using A2 dairy which is gut-friendly.

My new favorite ice cream!!! It is so, so good. I tried the Palm Springs Banana Date ice cream and I will be buying it more frequently. The consistency and ratio of flavors is perfect. I also got the chocolate blackout and love that one as well. Can't wait to try other flavors.

I tried Alec's Honey Blueberry Lavender ice cream, and it's become my new favorite. The combination of sweet blueberries, a hint of honey, and the lavender taste creates SUCH a unique and refreshing flavor!! The texture is incredibly creamy, and you can tell it's made with high-quality ingredients because the honey is still runny even though it's frozen. They also make their ice cream with A2 milk which is known to be easier to digest! I could go on and on about how much I love this ice cream It's a bit on the pricier side, but for an organic treat that tastes this good, I think it's worth it. I'll definitely be keeping a pint of this in my freezer from now on.
