    Cado Avocado Ice Cream Gains Distribution and New Flavors

    9
    By Alisa Fleming on June 12, 2019 Dairy-Free Ice Cream Reviews, Product Reviews

    The humble avocado has so many delicious uses, including frozen dessert. In 2016, Cado Avocado Ice Cream launched there first pints, all dairy-free and vegan. Skeptics emerged, but I had a feeling this fledgling brand would take hold. I’ve used avocados in some of my dairy-free dessert recipes, including ice cream, so I knew just how delicious it could be.

    Here we are, just three years later, and Cado Avocado Ice Cream can now be found in numerous grocers, including Target and Walmart stores. If you’re lucky, you can find all seven of the flavors, including new Cherry Amaretto and Java Chip.

    Cado Avocado Ice Cream Gains Distribution and New Flavors

    When I first posted about this brand, they had just three flavors: Mint Chocolate Chip, Deep Dark Chocolate, and Simply Lemon. Those varieties are still around, but they’ve added four more. So I’m updating this review page with all of the flavors, ingredients, nutrition facts, and some more details. Don’t forget to leave your own rating and review below when you’ve tried them!

    It’s creamy texture and flavor rivals the best of any gourmet frozen dairy/nondairy frozen dessert I’ve ever tasted.

    I was very pleasantly surprised by how good this is! I had the dark chocolate which is creamy, has a rich chocolate flavor, no odd flavors and not a hint of avocado unlike coconut ice cream which have a strong coconut flavor. Highly recommend trying this dairy free ice cream!

    I grew up in the dairy business where we made the best ice creme but it was high in butter fat and dairy. That’s still the way I like my ice creme. I happened upon CADO ice creme quite by accident and couldn’t believe how delicious it was! Since my initial trial I have tried almost all of their flavors and have not been disappointed! It is SO good I can’t believe it! They use all natural products and none of the additives that are so bad for us!

    This is the Best! The only negative thing is that I cannot find them the only one I’m able to find is the deep dark chocolate and the mint one that’s the only ones that get sold where I live I’d love to try them all.

    So I bought the cookies and cream flavor of Cado ice cream, and I must say that the taste is amazing! It tastes just like regular cookies and cream. However, both times I have eaten it, I have been very sick to my stomach.

    The deep dark chocolate is fantastic, the rest is very good but the chocolate is the best. Just wish it was easier to find. I call before I go shopping for your ice cream and take a ice chest.

      • Alisa Fleming on February 9, 2018 8:58 am

        You can ask your local Whole Foods to order it in. Most will accommodate this. I’m not affiliated with the brand, so you might want to reach out to them directly for additional help -> http://cadoicecream.com/

      I am an American who lives in Kuwait and was I surprised to see your plant derived ice cream in the store freezer of the Sultan Centre Grocery in Salmiya. I bought a pint of the mint chocolate chip and love it! So delicious, rich and smooth yet doesn’t make you feel full and heavy after eating it. Going to try the deep dark chocolate next. I am hooked. You need to market this in the Columbus and Cleveland Ohio areas, especially on all of the Big Ten University Campuses. Why not develop more flavors and then open ice cream shop franchises. So much more healthy than fattening Baskin Robbins, jenny’s, Pinkberry, etc. The Gulf States of the Middle East where diabetes and obesity are major issues, something like CADO Organic plant based ice cream would be a huge hit in the region. Feel free to contact me if you are interested in having me promote a product that is so unique, progressive and yummy across the Middle East!

      So thank you for creating Cado, the avocado tree loves you for it!
