NEW YORK, March 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Enlightened, the feel-good dessert brand, announces a new line of impossibly indulgent treats coming to grocery stores nationwide. Continuing the brand's mission to offer cravable desserts with better nutrition, Enlightened created the first lower sugar Sundae Cones to take your at-home dessert to the next level.

Enlightened's Sundae Cones have everything that makes a traditional sundae cone so joyful -- a crispy cone full of creamy ice cream topped with nuts and chocolate, and the iconic chocolate-filled tip making for a perfect last bite. The best part? Enlightened's Sundae Cones have a fraction of the sugar and half the calories of their sugary counterpart.

While a traditional sundae cone can have up to 23 grams of sugar, Enlightened's versions have as few as 6 grams of sugar and 140 calories per cone. Instead of using an excessive amount of sugar or artificial sweeteners, Enlightened sweetens its sundae cones with monk fruit to provide a delicious dessert with a nutritional profile you can feel good about. They will be available in five decadent flavors:

Light Ice Cream

Vanilla Fudge
Caramel Fudge
Peanut Butter Fudge

Frozen Greek Yogurt

Vanilla Honey featuring a honey core
Caramel Dark Chocolate Almond Butter featuring an almond butter core

"In creating these Sundae Cones, we wanted to offer a range of flavor profiles, so there is something for everyone," Enlightened CEO and founder Michael Shoretz said. "That's why we created three classic flavor profiles with our best-selling light ice cream and two yogurt-inspired flavors made with frozen greek yogurt, which include a flavor core for extra indulgence."

Enlightened Sundae Cones are packaged with three 4-ounce cones in a box (MSRP $5.99). Shoppers can find Sundae Cones on EatEnlightened.com and in grocery stores nationwide, including Sprouts Farmers Market, Shoprite, Walmart, H.E.B., Stop & Shop and more.
