10 Best Low Calorie Ice Creams in the UK | Halo Top Ben and Jerry's and More

Halo Top is a relative new kid on the block, but we can easily list its perks like we've been eating it all our lives. Low in calories, very low in saturated fats, and even comparatively light on sugars, this delectable range of ice creams loses no points when it comes to taste.

Best of all, Halo Top is available in fun flavours like cookie dough, birthday cake and vegan peanut butter chocolate. Yep, that's right, if this brand wasn't cool enough, they've even catered to dairy-free snackers with a plant-based pint!

Another frozen dessert brand making the most of that addictive sweet-and-salty combination is Oppo, who have won a Great Taste award for their pints of scoop-able caramel ice cream. With just 178 kcal per half tub you get all the flavour sensation with none of the stress.

Oppo also have one of the best flavour selections available, including Vanilla Pecan Praline Crunch, Chocolate Brownie and Cookies and Cream!

One of the best-loved low-calorie ice creams in the UK, Jude's has become a word-of-mouth hit regularly featuring on popular food blogs! Each flavour has a different calorie count, but they all average under 170 kcal per 100 ml.

We cannot get enough of Jude's vanilla clotted cream ice cream for pairing with everything from hot apple crumble to chocolate cake. The fat count is a little high, as are the sugar levels, but the sophistication of flavour more than makes up for that.

Low calorie swaps don't have to be depressing! We recommend these nutty desserts-on-a-stick from Halo Top as a light and lovely alternative to a Magnum. These peanut wonders contain just 100 kcal each, making them a smashing option if you're sticking to a low calorie menu.

 These lollies have some of the lowest fat and sugar levels in our ranking, so if you're a sucker for a blend of white chocolate and peanut butter, you might just develop a habit. Sadly, there's no vegan version yet, but here's hoping!

Roar ice creams are certainly Pudding Jungle royalty. In fact, they've clawed their way right up our tanking by teaming low-calorie frozen fabulousness with a tempting texture, all completely dairy-free of course! The price point edges towards the higher end, but it's totally worth it for a 500 ml tub of joy!

The flavour range is indulgent, without being sickly or too sweet. We adore this hazelnut chocolate cookie combo, but you'll also find coconut, mango and passionfruit, hemp seed chocolate and salted caramel with macadamia. Do your bit for animal rights by tucking into this roar-some vegan delight!

Who would have thought Haagen-Dazs would appear on a list of low-calorie ice creams? You may have noticed that at 193 calories per 100 ml, it's a little higher than  what the NHS would consider a calorie-light dessert. Never fear, this mouthwatering iced delight is divided into mini single-serving tubs which contain a more reasonable 150 calories each. 

The saturated fat count is not negligible and the sugars are fairly high too, but this is one of the tastiest ice creams on our list with a scrummy caramel flavour rarely achieved by other brands.

OK, this is actually a frozen yoghurt, but you'll forgive us when you see that one serving contains just 70 calories. We can't get enough of the slightly sour tang you get from frozen yogurt, especially this offering with real Belgian chocolate for a luxurious mouthful of loveliness!

While the calories are low and the saturated fat count is only 1.4 grams, the kicker here is the sugar content, which is a rather concerning 19.3 g. Therefore you may need to be strict on portion size if you're watching your sugar intake.

If you have a real sweet tooth, you'll be pleased to hear that good old Ben and Jerry's have launched a low-calorie verision of their famous cookie dough pint. The saturated fat count is certainly slim, but  the absolute best thing about this yummy chocolatey ice cream has to be the barely-there calorie count at just 136 per 100 ml. 

Just be aware that the sugar level is very high and there are more than a few taste-testers who've noted the unfathomably saccharine taste. So it may not be to everyone's liking.

This superb vegan ice cream alternative tastes just like the real thing! Unlike some dairy-free ice cream, it's not overly sweet, and while the vanilla version is a creamy classic, it's the raspberry flavour that stands out from the confectionery crowd. 

Unfortunately, the sugar content is a bit high, but if you're intent on sticking to a cruelty-free diet, this is a star product in flavour and price. Plus, the calorie count per 100 ml is one of the lowest on our whole list!

Cheap, cheerful and super low in calories, this is a good choice if you are on a budget and want to indulge in something supremely sweet. Containing only 77 calories per 100 ml, this cotton-candy flavoured ice cream comes with sugary sprinkles for a kid's party inspired treat.

Although this ice cream contains the fewest calories per 100 ml, it didn't quite make the top of our list. The birthday cake branding may conjure mouthwatering ideas, but there are no real cake pieces here and the flavour may leave some disappointed.
