Tesco Ice Cream Mini Bites - NEW

Finding higher calorie foods in mini form are guaranteed to get my attention. By eating these instead of the regular sized version, you get to enjoy a tiny taste of more indulgent treats without having to worry about consuming an excessive amount calories or the ensuing weight gain.

Fortunately, mini sized treats seem to be catching on and it’s now possible to find mini versions of all sorts of different food items.

In the frozen desserts cabinets of Tesco you can now find New Ice Cream Mini Bites. Ice Cream Mini Bites are miniature versions of choc ices and have just 70 calories each compared with an average of 135 calories for a regular sized choc ice.

Their main difference is their size, however you also get a choice of three tempting ice cream flavours: Cookies & Cream, Toffee Fudge and Chocolate Brownie.

The Toffee Fudge Mini Bites have a toffee flavoured ice cream centre with sweet fudge pieces in a milk chocolate flavoured coating. The Cookies & Cream Mini Bites have a cream flavoured ice cream centre with cookie crumble in a milk chocolate flavoured coating. Finally, the Chocolate Brownie Mini Bites are chocolate ice cream with brownie pieces in a milk chocolate flavoured coating.

Each box holds 10 x 18g (25ml) individually wrapped mini bites and they’re suitable for vegetarians. Available in Tesco stores.
