From the website:Made especially for Latinos craving the flavors of home, the NESTLÉ® Delicias brand brings these authentic frozen desserts to your freezer.
Okay, so all the non-Latinos need to leave right now. Sorry, but Nestlé has spoken. Evdently whites, blacks, Asians and the rest aren't interested in coconut ice cream.
That's a shame because Nestlé Delicias Coconut is very tasty. The best feature about this dessert is the texture. I often talk about how smooth an ice cream is but this product is at another level. Velvet-esque. And the taste isn't shabby neither. The coconut flavor lies in the background while the sweet cream hits your taste buds. The coconut is subtle; the way it should be.
Unfortunately one can hardly appreciate the luscious ice cream due to annoying coconut bits that Nestlé inconveniently sprinkles throughout an otherwise excellent product. Honestly, how often are foods improved with bits of coconut? I'm guessing somewhere between rarely and never. Leave the ice cream alone. No one wants to chew through shredded nonsense.
Click here for the ingredients and nutrition facts. Whey is the first ingredient listed, which is followed by the usual suspects milk, sugar and cream. Each half cup serving contains a sizable amount of calories (130), fat (4 grams) and sugar (15 grams).
I didn't catch the price but I imagine this quart costs a pretty penny. Overall this is a good treat. But yea, those coconut pieces derail what could have been a great ice cream. I would never buy Nestlé Delicias Coconut but if someone offered me a scoop I'd certainly take one. Probably two.
