Denali Chocolate Moose Tracks Has a New Ice Cream Bar!

Denali® Triple Chocolate Moose Tracks Ice Cream Bars review

I’ve always been impressed that this company respects chocolate enough to register their name – Denali® moose tracks And of course these moose tracks ™  are in tons of other ice cream brands, all properly attributed. A great example of branding, registering, and copyright. I love them. Period.

(Actually, this is 2 separate registrars: one for Denali and one for moose tracks, though it’s not capitalized. (Probably the copyright office wouldn’t allow a real object like moose tracks to be registered or trademarked.) Still, I see the 3 words in many ice cream products, so it still works.

These ice cream bars, which just appeared on the Von’s ice cream shelf, are described as: Chocolate ice cream with Moose Tracks Fudge and chunks covered in Moose Tracks fudge coating.

But these Denali bars aren’t the best way to use this chocolate treat. In ice cream, the exciting part of eating them is getting to this thick ribbon of semi-hard Denali ™ pure chocolate buried deep within. And sometimes it’s at the bottom! I’m a prospector!

Mechanical problems and meltdown of Denali Ice

cream Bars

In these new ice cream bars, it looks like Denali® has inserted 3 different ribbons of moose tracks. And the ribbons are not attached to the ice cream, so there are pockets of air all through the bar.

This makes for an interesting texture on the tongue, but it also makes the bar fragile. Hunks of the outer coating and bits inside fell off them soon after unwrapping each of the 3 bars. It was like a landslide on a mountain.

On the plus side, the flavor of the outer couverture, which they call Moose Tracks Fudge Coating (it’s not fudge) was a little sharp, but also good. The base ice cream was okay, and the ribbons were tasty, but didn’t taste like the usual Denali tracks to me.

I think this would be much improved with just one ribbon of Moose Tracks in each bar. That’s what Haagen-Dazs does with their Caramel bars, and it doesn’t seem to hurt their sales.

Try, try again, Denali®. And I volunteer to be a taste tester.

What others are saying about Denali Moose Track Bars

I found a sad site that says Denali isn’t very healthy. Hey, who asked you? 330 calories, but also has 2g fiber.

Ingredients: Milkfat and Nonfat Milk, Sugar, Corn Syrup, Coating, Fudge Variegate

Daddywaddyweeviews (yes, there is a site called that, and Denali even gave them free ice cream to try) said his kids really liked them.

Couldn’t find any more “reviews.” They’re that new!

Where to buy Denali Moose Tracks Ice Cream Bars?

Amazon carries no Denali at all, but I found some at Instacart! (Just the ice cream, not the bars.)

2 stars. You can’t eat ice cream bars and enjoy the taste when they fall apart in your hands.
