The LACTAID Sunday Dairies Campaign Stars Ciara Miller

— June 1, 2026 — Lifestyle
The LACTAID Sunday Dairies campaign has been introduced as a nod to the topic of Sunday scaries and end-of-weekend-related stress to help dairy-sensitive consumers indulge in ice cream without worry. The campaign stars TV personality and model Ciara Miller, and encourages consumers to ditch Sunday-related stress and focus more on enjoying their time off.

The campaign puts the LACTAID Ice Cream with its lactose-free recipe in the spotlight and is launching alongside a sweepstakes that will run this summer. Fans will get the chance to win a year's supply of LACTAID Ice Cream.

Miller commented on the LACTAID Sunday Dairies campaign saying, "Summer Sundays are all about slowing down, indulging a bit, and soaking up every minute of the weekend. I am obsessed with LACTAID Ice Cream, especially the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough flavor, because I get that rich, creamy dairy taste I crave without the discomfort. I'm so here for LACTAID Sunday Dairies — it's the perfect way to ditch the Scaries and actually look forward to Sundays again."
