Sunscoop, the plant-based, allergy-friendly ice cream brand, launched Sundrops as a first-of-its-kind line of plant-based ice cream bonbons inspired by classic novelty ice cream treats. These ice cream bites are made with the brand's creamy, coconut-based ice cream, a layer of cookie dough and a decadent chocolate shell.
Free from dairy, gluten and soy, these ice cream bites were created to be more than just another ice cream sandwich or a bar. The snackable frozen dessert uses the brand's current ice cream flavors as inspiration, meaning the Sundrops are ready to be enjoyed in varieties like Cookie Whoa!, Cookies 'n' Coconut Cream, Salted Caramel and Mmmint Chocolate.
In a single bite, this frozen dessert makes it easy to enjoy the comforting taste of ice cream, cookie dough and chocolate, without the ingredients that many consumers are actively trying to avoid.
