Nestle Peters
Ice Cream

All Nestle Peters ice creams manufactured in Australia are under our supervision. [Not yet Chalav Yisrael]

The following are not manufactured in Australia and are not certified Kosher:
  • Heaven Chunky Cookie AKA Heaven Extras Chunky Cookie
  • Heaven Rocky
  • Smarties Push Up 
  • Drumstick Kit Kat
Some products contain carmine (E120) and/or gelatine as displayed on their ingredients panel. 
Products that do not list milk components on their ingredients panel are Pareve.
 
We, at It's Kosher, present a balanced view that accommodates the entire spectrum of Halachic observance. Stringencies that reflect our love for Gd must resonate with family and community harmony. This was the key theme of Rabbi Channan's lecture to Melbourne's Jewish Community, where he identified 4 reasons that prompt people to pursue Chumros [stringencies]:
  • In order to be like other people
  • In order to be different to other people
  • In order to be sure
  • Because one loves HaShem

Discover Kosher carmine and gelatine
We have carefully vetted all ingredients and performed a comprehensive audit of the processing plant, and most importantly we have gained the full co-operation of Nestle Peters. Special thanks to JL. 

We provide consumers with the information they want, permitting them to make informed decisions. Now, those who prefer to avoid foods containing carmine and/or gelatine can garner this information from the ingredients panel. 

They can also be confident that all other products are absolutely free of these ingredients.  
We are particularly proud of having gained the confidence of Nestle, the largest food company in the world. 

We provide Kosher certification according to the Halachic guidelines that we have learned, received as our tradition and have developed through discussion with many contemporary Poskim. 

It is not unusual to know of products proclaimed Kosher by one Kosher org but rejected by another. Are we building barriers or do we seek to build bridges? Even we who choose not to consume various products, must embrace without reservation, others who do not share our stringencies. 

Stringencies undertaken because we love Gd cannot possibly be the source of anything less than full Ahavat Yisrael. We note this in particular following the lecture presented by Rabbi Channan, to the Melbourne Business Community, who identified 4 reasons that people pursue Chumros [stringencies]:
  • In order to be like other people
  • In order to be different to other people
  • In order to be sure
  • Because one loves HaShem
