Ottawa-based ice cream ship Little Jo Berry's recently created a new vegan frozen dessert that pays tribute to the narwhal. The blue-colored soft-serve treat features an Oat and Mill oat-based vegan cream with a decadent Earl Grey Cookie flavor that is amplified by cookie crumbles. The whale-inspired snack also includes a decorative spiral horn and eyes to complete the look of the creature.
Last year, Little Jo Berry's launched a unicorn ice cream and currently serves a unicorn-themed cake. Food and beverage creations inspired by mythical creatures remain incredibly popular, especially among social media-savvy consumers who are looking for photo-worthy food experiences centered around offbeat flavors.
Consumers are constantly seeking inventive desserts but a heightened interest in plant-based eating has inspired consumers of all dietary preferences to take interest in vegan-friendly options.
