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.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
These flavors are pretty unique and so delicious. The price is high for a pint, but not too much more than Ben and Jerry’s. I love that they’re all organic. I wasn’t super familiar with A2 dairy but I’m happy to learn about this brand’s sustainable practices.

Saw these pop up in our local Whole Food's freezer section and gave it a whirl based off of flavors. Alec's did not disappoint. We had the Palm Springs - some data shake banana chocolate concoction - and the peanut butter fudge honeycomb flavors. Delicious, great texture, 100% would buy again.
The flavors are so fun, the packaging is amazing. Sprouts sometimes has the less attractive flavors for incredible prices, so that's a convenient option! My favorite flavor is the blueberry lavender, and it MIGHT just be one of my favorite flavors of all time. Helps that it doesn't hurt my stomach after, too!!
had the matcha chocolate chip ice cream and it was so good- will definitely be buying again and trying other flavors!! extra points for good consistency but i do wish that there were more chocolate chips
chose 3: matcha chocolate chip, meyer lemon cookie, and strawberry crumble. i let my husband pick 2 and he chose the fruity ones which are not what i would've picked, but i did really like the matcha--went out on a limb with this flavor and it was uniquely delicious, also it was my first time having matcha ice cream--i'm a fan! the other two were what you would expect, both were tasty but i favored the lemon over the strawberry. you can taste the quality of the ingredients. this brand did not disappoint. i want to try them all!

It’s ice cream it’s delicious. What can I say? I got mint chocolate chip and vanilla and they were both a creamy delight.

VERY tasty ice cream but I think there is a bit of greenwashing going on because they include inflammatory oils in their product (why not switch to something like coconut oil instead?!? PLEASE!). Still, I love that it is an organic ice cream option.

Great flavors. Rich creamy texture
I am a huge lover of ice cream and this ice cream was hands down the best ice cream I’ve ever had! I do not say that lightly at all either. It’s such a decadent treat for the taste buds. I want more!!!
This ice cream was really creamy, having that classic rich ice cream taste. My only concern was the nutrition, but that always comes with some quality classic ice cream. We got triple chocolate blackout cookie and peanut butter honeycomb, and the PB one tasted like real peanut butter

Really wonderful product… no stomach ache after eating half the pint.. ha! The flavors were delicious and complex. Bought one for my sibling who is lactose intolerant. A little pricey, but the BOGO deal made it sweet. I will purchase this as a treat in the future, but probably not often due to price and because I don’t often purchase ice cream.

This is some of the better ice cream I've had. Give the lime/cookie flavor a try, as well as the Triple Chocolate Blackout. It's all goo.d

The Mint Chip is literally the best ice cream I've ever had in my life. I think about it almost daily. The only thing is that it's about a 30min drive away to get a pint, so my Alec's consumption is not at the level I want it to be. It is about $6-7 a pint but worth it. I'm dying to try other flavors, AND it's made with A2 milk so easier on yr stomach.

This is delicious. I love it. It is not too sweet. It's perfect to have in summer time. However, their package is not so good, I saw it break in the frozen shelf and too much ice on it
It’s very good ice cream. Simple as that.

It has a rich taste. Overall good quality but the only reason to take a rating down is its price points. Would get them when on sale.

Good creamy ice cream. My only wish is that they didn’t add malodextrin to the and cleaner gums than guarguar gum.

Overall, Alec's is *really good* ice cream. Very clean, little to no additives, organic and regenerative. The flavors for the most part are on point and taste premium, having tried multiple. On the individual: Salted Chocolate was okay, a little bit boring but you could taste the salt. It was just chocolate ice cream though. Tahitian Vanilla and Sea Salt Caramel were great top tier flavors. The vanilla in the vanilla bean was very pronounced and high quality. The caramel swirl had a depth of flavor and the ice cream itself was salty and sweet like a caramel base. Meyer Lemon Cookie could have a little more lemon flavor - it tasted more sweet overall than specifically lemon, I think it needs to be stronger because I was really looking forward to this flavor.
Alec's Ice Cream nailed it with their Peanut Butter Fudge Honeycomb flavor. The combination of salted peanut butter, crunchy honeycomb toffee, and rich fudge is a dream come true. Each bite is a delightful mix of creamy and crunchy. This ice cream has become my go-to treat for satisfying my sweet tooth. The Coffee & Toffee flavor is just fantastic. The cold-brewed coffee and sweet cream base with bits of chocolate-covered toffee are a match made in heaven. It's the perfect balance of coffee flavor and sweetness. Great for an afternoon treat or dessert!

Alec’s ice cream has climbed its way to my top ice cream picks after trying the matcha chocolate chip! Admittedly, I’m not a huge ice cream lover (I’m a froyo girlie), but I will not refuse high quality, low sugar, and delicious ice cream. The ingredients are one of the most simple and minimal I’ve seen and what I look for. It’s a huge plus that this brand tries to make ice cream for those of us who are challenged with digesting dairy, aka me. Since trying the matcha chocolate chip, we went back to pick up salted dark chocolate and strawberry crumble! Can attest both are delicious! Strawberry crumble tastes like a strawberry shortcake and the salted dark chocolate tastes how it sounds — a salted decadent dark chocolate.
