Ice cream made with authentic cream offers an unparalleled indulgence—the richness and taste of genuine cream simply aren’t comparable to frozen treats crafted with synthetic flavors and ingredients. At Costco, the selection is extensive enough to encompass both genuine ice cream and other frozen desserts, yet unlike other stores that might demand higher prices for the real deal, Costco ensures a good bargain. Here, we explore seven ice cream brands available at Costco that use authentic cream.
Häagen-Dazs Strawberry Ice Cream

Häagen-Dazs Strawberry Ice Cream incorporates real cream along with genuine strawberries. One Reddit user shared, “Haagen-Dazs turned out to be the winner for me, surprisingly, since I usually don’t favor Haagen-Dazs due to their ice creams often feeling too milky and sometimes lacking in flavor. However, this ice cream stood out as the exception. It tasted super fresh and creamy, with chunks of strawberry throughout.”
Twix Ice Cream Bars

Twix Ice Cream bars feature real cream as an ingredient, with each package offering 24 bars. According to Costco enthusiasts, the ice cream surpasses even the original candy bars, which are also available at the warehouse retailer. One customer commented, “Buying bulk candy this way is fantastic. As a fan of Twix, I could easily add to numerous Christmas stockings.”
Snickers Ice Cream Bars

Snickers Ice Cream Bars have cream listed as the second ingredient after skim milk. “I’m maybe a unpopular opinion bc Snickers Ice Cream bars are one of my favorite rare treats, everything just works,” one fan said.
Butterfinger Ice Cream Bars

Butterfinger Ice Cream Bars are made with real cream as one of the ingredients. “These were so amazing. I just bought them today as my store just got them. I think they are even better than the candy itself,” one fan raved.
Häagen-Dazs Vanilla Milk Chocolate Almond Ice Cream Bars

Häagen-Dazs Vanilla Milk Chocolate Almond Ice Cream Bars are not only made with real cream, it’s listed as the first ingredient. “These have been a fam favorite since I was a kid. I will always choose them over the Kirkland ones since it’s a full chocolate coating vs chocolate flavored coating,” one shopper said.
Kirkland Signature Super Premium Vanilla Ice Cream

Fresh cream is the first ingredient listed for the fan-favorite Kirkland Signature Super Premium Vanilla Ice Cream. “This is, by far the best vanilla ice cream we’ve had! It’s so creamy and delicious. And somehow, when we take it out of the freezer, it’s scoop-able right away,” one fan said.
Island Way Sorbet

The very popular Island Way Sorbet contains cream, usually the third ingredient after water and sugar. “My wife and I banned ourselves from buying them because we were getting them like every Costco run lol,” one shopper said. “The coconut is unrivaled,” another said.
