My first taste of Daiya Frozen Dessert Bars was actually at a trade show, and it was quite an experience. The bars hadn’t yet gone to production, so their staff hand dipped every bar in chocolate the night before. We tried the Classic Vanilla Bean, and it exceeded expectations. It was definitely coconut, but the vanilla shined through, and it was a true dessert experience.
These dairy-free, allergy-friendly ice cream bars are now in full production, with four flavors to choose from. And we have every lick of the details in this post!

I tried a daiya vanilla bar and they are excellent. I purchased it at our Cash Wise store. I better buy several boxes at a time because the shelf is too often empty. I haven’t checked Target because I hardly ever go there but I will just to check if they carry the bar in their stock.
Delicious
Absolutely the best non dairy chocolate fudge crunch bar out there. I have trouble keeping it away from family that can eat dairy!
Can't tell that it's Dairy free
I am always looking for a little treats for my daughter. She is on the spectrum and is on a special diet and cannot have dairy or soy. It is incredibly hard to find substitutes for her that taste good. This bar is so good that the rest of the family wants in on them. It’s so creamy and it’s the perfect size! We sure do love Daiya in this family. My daughter doesn’t feel lift out anymore, which means so much to this momma
Happy with product
I’m lactose intolerant, happy to have these delicious ice cream treats.

I eat 1 or 2 a day. Except I can’t find any right now I’m so sad must be back ordered I hope it’s coming back.
Absolutely the best!
The right balance of creamy, sweetness, texture (smooth and creamy). Would love one dipped in white chocolate instead of dark chocolate.
Classic Vanilla Bean
Delicious!
Super delicious!
And here I thought I was going to have to give up ice cream, now that can no longer tolerate casein. These little guys are amazing, I can’t get enough! They look small, but the size is perfect. Never had ice cream bars that tasted this good and weren’t made from regular milk. Dove who?
Best ever!!
My son is 11 & lactose intolerant. This is the best treat ever!! Thank you!! It reminds me of the Mickey ice cream bars at Disney Land. You are the best!! Please keep up the great work. My son can eat again because of you.
Amazing
These bars are second to none, I absolutely love them they are so rich and creamy, I will never have a need to buy dairy ones again.
