About Us

Halo Top is light ice cream that actually tastes like ice cream. Which sounds silly, but when Halo Top first found its way into grocery store freezers, boasting fewer calories, less sugar, and higher protein than traditional ice cream, it became the first of its kind and created an entirely new category in ice cream.

But we’ll back up a second to give some background to the story. Why did we want to make light ice cream that tastes like ice cream? Well, it’s pretty simple: we liked ice cream so much, we wanted to eat it more. So, we created delicious, creamy light ice cream that’s lower calorie and a good source of protein so we could do just that. With only 270-490 calories in an entire pint, we proudly proclaim the number of calories on the front of each pint in big, bold numbers, proving that we have nothing to hide and delighting sweet treat seekers seeking a better-for-you option.

We started out with four delicious flavors. Luckily for us, people wanted more, and we were happy to oblige. We introduced 3 more flavors, and people still wanted more. So, we released 7 more flavors… fast forward to today: we now have 21 delicious flavors.

We hate to brag but our fans really liked our new flavors as much as they loved the original flavors. So much so, we experienced a sudden tremendous growth that both overwhelmed and excited us beyond belief (somebody pinch us, please?). In August 2017, Halo Top became the #1 selling pint of ice cream in the U.S. beating out long-term industry giants. In November 2017, Halo top made history when Time Magazine named our pints as one of its top inventions of the year.

Naturally, with this growth, we doubled down on providing frozen treat fans with the better-for-you options they crave. In 2025, we are thrilled to unveil 8 new pints that are packed with mix-ins in every bite, and still only 490 calories. Some may hear our story and say we have an ice cream problem, but we see it more of a solution.
