About this deal

Coconut fats are good for you. Simply Coconut is higher in calorie content than the fruit varieties of Smooze but we’re still talking less than the same sized serve of ice cream Ingredients: 50% pineapple juice, 38% coconut milk, 12% other ingredients (natural cane sugar, fruit pectin, taro gum, natural flavors, citric acid, ascorbic acid). Plant-based or vegan options have been increasingly popular in recent years in Singapore and South East Asia as individuals become more health-conscious and look for alternatives to traditional dairy-based frozen desserts. While it is common to know that a relatively large percentage of consumers in Asia are intolerant to dairy or gluten, one would be glad to know that they can continue enjoying frozen desserts and treats with Smooze. Remember, that when we eat healthy whole foods most of the time, there is room the occasional treat. Treats don’t have to be the healthiest of the bunch. But if your family enjoys icy poles often, it is worth making the switch to something a little more nourishing. Unlike our other varieties, Pineapple Smooze has a distinctly icy texture which our sons say makes it the most refreshing on a hot, sunny day

A single zooper dooper has 2 1/2 vteaspoons of sugar and no fruit or other nutrients. We shouldn’t be having any more than 6 teaspoons of added sugar a day (and non for under 2s) so one of these sweet treats is going to mean you need to be really careful with your intake for the rest of the day.

Smooze was first developed in 2007 by a family based team of people who loved Coconut in all its form and wanted to bring the best of this delicious & nutritious fruit to consumers across the world. Coconuts are recognised as one of the richest sources of lauric acid, a medium chain fatty acid that promotes an increase in the metabolic rate, an improvement in digestion & nutrient absorption, and the retention of omega 3 fatty acids. Lauric acid is also highly regarded for anti-bacterial properties, which encourages a strong and healthy Immune System. Are Smooze Fruit Lollies Healthy? I understand why these are popular. Their in a plastic tube that kids lovely and the real fruit juice means they’re an obviously healthier choice over Zooper Doopers. These ones use only natural flavourings which is a good thing. Coconut milk isn’t nearly as nutritious as the flesh, but you’ll still get some trace minerals. Smooze Fruit Ice are still high in added sugars and the gums can cause gastrointestinal upset in some people (especially those who have allergies to dairy, soy, wheat or corn). A great way to cool down and stay hydrated in our sunny weather, while also getting a burst of tropical flavours! It’s a fun and easy way to enjoy healthier fruit popsicles at home!

Ingredients: Water, Sugar, Food Acid (Citric Acid), Flavours, Colours (122, 150d, 110, 102, 123, 133), Preservatives (202, 211, 223) When assessing how healthy something is, I can’t help but take away points for a product that is on the ‘health food’ bandwagon and claims to be healthy when it doesn’t have anything good to offer. Sugar Freezies get the wooden spoon award from me. It’s icy pole season again! Summer is almost upon us and it wouldn’t be an Aussie summer without sitting on the trampoline with an icy pole. Kids adore them and they can be a great way for everyone to cool down. Ingredients: 47% pink guava juice (from puree), 40% coconut milk, 13% other ingredients (natural cane sugar, fruit pectin, citric acid, natural flavors, ascorbic acid). You get bonus points for adding a vegetable (like cucumber or spinach) but honestly, it will be such a small amount it isn’t going to contribute to your daily 5+ serves. What adding a veggie will do though, is;

Coconut water is one of the best natural sources of minerals like potassium, magnesium, calcium and sodium and these electrolytes are key to our body for heart, skeletal and muscle functions. I am sure that no-one is in denial that zooper doopers are a healthy choice. I thought I’d include them here for comparison sake. A zooper dooper icy pole is just flavoured sugar water.

Blending whole fruit for home made icy poles means you get all the fibre from the fruit too so the sugars are truly natural (in their natural form) and won’t contribute to your added sugar allowance. Ingredients: Coconut Milk 80%, Natural Cane Sugar, Maltodextrin, Fructose, Stabilisers (Tara Gum, Xanthan Gum), Natural Coconut Flavouring, Salt. Even without the additives, fruit juices do count towards your daily intake of added sugars. A regular sized Proud and Punch icy pole will add 2 teaspoons towards your intake, but you are still getting some benefit (vitamins and minerals) from the fruit juices and a tiny bit of fibre from the puree.Nutrition (per 2.2-ounce ice treat): 70 calories, 2g fat, 12g carbs, <1g fiber, 10g sugars (includes 8g added sugars), 0g protein.* Some of the medium chain fatty acids in coconut milk are identical to those found in human breast milk – they are highly nutritious
