Ripple, the brand behind plant-based milk alternatives powered by pea protein, is expanding its product portfolio to include a range of frozen allergy-friendly desserts that are free from not just dairy but also other top allergens. Ripple's Plant-Based Frozen Dessert is described as being as smooth, creamy and indulgent as traditional dairy ice cream and is made with the brand's 'ripptein' proprietary pea protein blend. As such, Ripple's dairy-free ice cream is free from eggs, nuts and soy, which offers an alternative to other popular non-dairy products that are made with cashews, soy or almonds.
The Plant-Based Frozen Desserts are offered in classic flavors like Chocolate, Vanilla, Cookies & Crème and Mint Chip, as well as other favorites like Cinnamon Churro.
