Eating right and enjoying what you eat are not new ideas. But sometimes they’re hard to do. Now, Tasti D-Lite is making it easier because Tasti D-Lite’s frozen dairy desserts are significantly lower in calories, fat, carbohydrates and sugar, compared to traditional ice cream products. Yet the taste is creamy and delicious. Made with milk, sugar and unique ingredients, Tasti D-Lite is a great choice for people who want to enjoy a healthy and active lifestyle, without missing out on treats.
For more than 25 years Tasti D-Lite has been New York’s favourite guilt-free indulgence. It started small, but this is an idea – and healthy product – whose time has come.
Since 1987, Tasti D-Lite has grown mostly by word of mouth in response to a large customer base of raving fans who line up day and night to get their Tasti. Thanks to international exposure on highly-rated U.S. TV series Sex and the City, The Apprentice and 30 Rock, interest in Tasti D-Lite has grown. And now this unique product is ready for its Australian debut.
The US brand was acquired by new owners, led by franchising veteran Jim Amos and a team of experts in 2007. With new ownership, new management and a compelling strategic vision for the future, Tasti D-Lite has entered a new phase of growth in the frozen dessert category. With a new brand image and updated retail design, 2011 marks the launch of Tasti D-Lite Australia franchising opportunities.
it’s not yoghurt or ice cream; it’s better
Technically, we can’t call Tasti D-Lite “ice-cream” because it doesn’t have the substantial butter fat and total solids of ice cream. And it’s not “yoghurt” because it doesn’t contain yoghurt cultures.
It’s true that most Tasti flavours have just 70 calories, 1.5grams of fat and 13 grams of carbs per 120ml serving. But it’s the taste that people remember.
That Tasti formula is simple: Tasti D-Lite is a dairy-based frozen treat made from a proprietary formula using custom-made hardware, available in more than 100 flavours everyday. So it’s a totally unique frozen treat with less of what people don’t need – calories, fat and carbs – and more of what they want…creamy, delicious taste!
