The January 2021 Vegandulgence Series from Salt & Straw shares a variety of frozen desserts that are free from dairy yet as decadent as ever. As the brand notes, "Gone are the days when vegan implies a sacrifice."
The plant-based ice cream menu includes vegan versions of Coconut Rice Pudding and Bourbon & Caramelized Honeycomb, plus new takes on classic flavors like Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies & Cream. While the Banana Avocado Sorbet stands out for its bright green color, the Peanut Butter Strawberry Crumble is sure to capture the hearts of PB&J fans.
The vegan frozen dessert menu can be found at all Salt & Straw scoop shops nationwide for a limited time, and fortunately for ice cream lovers, the pints are just as easy to order online thanks to nationwide shipping.
