5 Ice Cream Bars & Pops that Could Save Your Gluten Free Summer

Nothing says “It’s summer!” like the sound of an ice cream truck’s hypnotizing melody curling around the neighborhood.  But for many of us, what used to be a daily highlight during the long, hot days of summer vacation, now is just a reminder of food we just can’t eat anymore.

Fortunately, with Zeer Select you can see alternatives for old favorites and find out what’s really gluten free. We’ve taken a closer look at some of our old summer-time favorites and unearthed some potential gluten-free alteratives that you and your family can enjoy this summer.

Blue Bunny Assorted Fudge Bars

When we were younger, we probably never read the back of a Fudgsicle package - but now we all know it contains Malt Powder. Fortunately Blue Bunny has come to the rescue with Sweet Freedom Assorted Fudge Bars, a fat free, no sugar added gluten-free version of the chocolatey summer-time staple.

Diana’s Dark Chocolate Banana Babies

Okay, so we all went a little bananas for Fudgsicle Banana Bananza Bars. For a small kid, the bumble-bee colored swirls of chocolate and banana are admitedly mezmorizing, but nothing can replace real banana flavor. Enter Diana’s Dark Chocolate Banana Babies, little chocolate covered bananas that even your kids can enjoy.
