ICE CREAM ALTERNATIVES

Updated: May 24, 2023

Dairy Free Ice cream, Sorbets, Coconut Milk Ice Cream style desserts and other variations of Icey desserts of creamy consistency have been trending more and more in the last decades and become a hot topic for foodies working in food Product Development.


However, product development involving desserts made with ice dates back to biblical times. According to a recent publication by the IDFA (International Dairy Foods Association) titled “The History of Ice Cream”. Apparently, King Solomon was very fond of “iced drinks” during harvesting.


It wasn’t until the 1800’s, however, that desserts made with ice became available to all in America.

Today, ice cream production is over 6.4 billion pounds in the United States and remains a favorite among people of all ages. However, because it is an energy dense food, high in carbohydrates, sugars and fat, we are advised to eat it in moderation.


Sonja Beauchamp, founder of Love Bananas, developed her own vegan, plant-based ice cream style dessert, made of coconut milk and real bananas. You would not believe it isn’t dairy based because it is so creamy!
