About Halo Top
Halo Top is a low-calorie ice cream launched in 2012, using erythritol and stevia in place of most of the sugar and printing the calorie count for the whole pint prominently on the lid. It grew fast enough to briefly outsell established brands, and came to Ferrero with Wells Enterprises in 2022.
