Vegan Ice Cream

By Karin Ridgers

According to Allied Market Research the Vegan Ice Cream Market is set to reach $805.3 Mn globally by 2027. Well I don’t mind what is driving this massive trend – as long as its better for the cows and the planet! I have to admit I am a vanilla fan when it comes to ice cream... and it was the original Swedish Glace that even helped me go vegan 25 years ago – I thought if vegan ice cream can taste this good who needs cow milk products!? (Back then we had several vegan brands (including the yummy Tofutti) and Swedish Glace had various flavours including “pear” – that tasted like pear drops! Now of course in health food stores and supermarkets there is an array of vegan ice creams and to my sons delight we can even find a vegan ice cream when going out for the day to the seaside. I still find this amazing and often take a photo of “vegan ice cream available here” signs – however it really has become the norm now! Many are soya based, coconut based, and nut based. Always best to leave out for a few minutes before serving and get yourself one of those ice cream scoopers for a professional look. My tip is to leave the scooper in warm water before using on your ice cream.
