The protein trend has reached the ice cream aisle.
Foothills Creamery has created the first high-protein ice cream in Canada to debut protein ice cream and their new pints pack 30 grams of protein with less sugar.
Ice cream gets a protein boost
Foothills Creamery, founded in 1969, is committed to driving innovation in the dairy industry. Their latest entry is a high-protein ice cream that has 30 grams of protein per pint and contains 50 percent less sugar. Foothills Creamery Protein Ice Cream is the first high-protein ice cream in Canada and comes in 500 mL Coffee Bean and Chocolate Peanut Butter. They retail between $7.49 and $7.99 and are available at Freson Bros., and select Sobeys and Safeway locations across Alberta, with Calgary Co-op availability beginning in stores April 10.
The new high-protein ice cream is just the latest in a series of new butter and ice cream products. In 2025, Foothills Creamery launched single-serve ice cream (237 ml), available individually and in a 6-pack multi-pack. The Ice Cream Multi-Pack won the 2025 Alberta Food & Beverage Awards for Sweets and Candy, hosted by the Alberta Food Processors Association. Foothills Creamery also launched flavoured whipped butter, including Maple Brown Sugar and Cowboy Spice Blend varieties. Other new ice cream flavours for 2026 include Whisky Caramel (500 ml), Coffee Bean (500 ml), and Spumoni Twist (1.4 L).
