Magic Cup Nutritional Overview

Magic Cup is an ice cream-like product manufactured by Hormel Health Labs that can be safely consumed even when liquids need to be thickened. It has the texture of ice cream when frozen but becomes pudding-like when thawed. This allows those on thickened liquid diets to enjoy ice cream without risk of aspiration. The Elliot Hospital currently offers Magic Cup in vanilla and orange cream flavors, which are nutritionally similar except the orange cream has 1 more gram of sugar. Magic Cup is intended to supplement the diets of malnourished, undernourished, or low oral intake patients.
