Ice Cream Review Van Leeuwen Key Lime Pie

Review

Description from Walmart Website: …nothing makes us happier than this Key Lime Pie Ice Cream. Because it reminds us of vacation and vacation is good. Good like key lime ice cream made even gooder with pieces of graham cracker crust. Please excuse us while we put up our OOO message. Sunnies on.

This was a seasonal flavor available from Walmart in Summer 2023.

Key Lime Ice Cream: A somewhat bold lime flavor. Not too sweet. Lighter texture, not quite as thick and creamy as the typical VL pint. Somewhat icy, which can be a problem with fruit-flavored bases.

Graham Cracker Crust Pieces: Solid graham cracker flavor. Soft texture, not frozen or soggy. Dry, not quite the crunch, density or feel of pie crust. Small to medium in size. Happily, there were a very generous amount of chunks—as you can see from the cross section pictures. Multiple chunks on every spoon.

Overall: The lime flavor popped. And the plentiful, flavorful graham cracker chunks were a lot of fun. A refreshing, summertime treat. Recommended.

Score: 8/10
