At Natural Products Expo West, Wicked Kitchen unveiled a new line of plant-based frozen desserts made with lupin bean. These vegan treats are said to have a creamy texture and mouthfeel thanks to the use of this ingredient.
Wicked Kitchen is introducing not only Berry White Sticks and Chocolate and Red Berry Cones but also pints in four flavors and Chocolate and Almond Sticks with a vanilla ice cream base, toasted nut pieces and chocolate-flavored coating.
As an ingredient, the lupini bean stands out as an excellent plant-powered source of fiber and protein, all the while being low in carbs. This superfood is being worked into a range of snacks and desserts to appeal to health-conscious consumers who want indulgent products that don't compromise their approach to wellness and balanced living.
