    Jeni’s Dairy-Free Ice Cream is Packed with Nostalgic American Flavors

    0
    By Alisa Fleming on January 2, 2022 Dairy-Free Ice Cream Reviews, Dining Out, Product Reviews, Suggested Restaurants, U.S. Restaurants

    Updated January 2022! Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream is an Ohio-based creamery that garnered national acclaim for inspired flavors and high-quality ingredients. They now have a few dozen Scoop Shops throughout the United States and sell their ice cream by the pint. They started out as a pure dairy-based company, but Jeni’s has expanded to offer a whole range of creamy vegan ice creams and dairy-free sorbets. We’ve included the latest information on each flavor, followed by additional dairy-free items you can find at Jeni’s Scoop Shops.

    Jeni's Dairy-Free Ice Cream Pints Review - ingredients, allergen info, ratings, and more! All vegan and coconut based - 4 decadent dessert flavors.

    Jeni’s Dairy-Free Ice Cream is Packed with Nostalgic American Flavors

    Jeni launched her first creamy dairy-free flavor, Dark Chocolate Truffle, a few years ago. That initial variety took five years of recipe development. But once she was able to master the base formula, more test flavors quickly followed. As a result, you can now purchase a whole collection of unique but enticing non-dairy ice creams. All of the current Jeni’s Dairy-Free Ice Cream flavors are made with a rich creamy base that is unabashedly coconut. The flavor does mildly assert itself, even in the chocolate, so this brand is best for coconut connoisseurs.

    Banana Cream Pudding (new in 2021!)

    Real bananas merge with their coconut cream base to make a frozen dessert version of a favorite American dessert. And of course, it’s littered with vanilla wafer cookies. But unlike Nilla’s, these are vegan and gluten-free.

All vegan and coconut based - 4 decadent dessert flavors.Ingredients: coconut cream, water, cane sugar, vanilla wafer gravel [gluten free flour (sweet white rice flour, whole grain brown rice flour, potato starch, whole grain sweet white sorghum flour, tapioca flour, xanthan gum), vegan spread (oil blend {coconut oil, high oleic sunflower oil, palm fruit oil}, water, sunflower lecithin, tocopherols, natural flavor, organic annatto extract {color}), sugar, tapioca syrup, madagascar bourbon vanilla extract, oat flour (whole grain oats), brown sugar, gluten free baking powder (sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium bicarbonate, cornstarch, monocalcium phosphate), sea salt], tapioca syrup, banana puree (banana, citric acid, ascorbic acid), madagascar bourbon vanilla extract, turmeric (color), sea salt, carob bean gum, sunflower lecithin. contains: coconut*

    Lemon Bar

    Jeni aims for the perfect sweet-tart balance with vegan lemon curd, shortbread crumbles, and coconut flakes in her signature coconut ice cream.

    Caramel Pecan Sticky Buns

    The rich coconut cream base is loaded with vegan sticky bun pieces, dark dairy-free caramel, and roasted pecans.

    Cold Brew with Coconut Cream

    Intense Slingshot Coffee cold brew sorbet is twisted with lush coconut cream in their lightest flavor. It’s made with organic, Direct Trade coffee beans, and provides a taste that will wow most Frappuccino fans.

    Dark Chocolate Truffle

    Rich with Fair Trade cocoa, this flavor takes it’s name seriously. The luxurious chocolate base tastes very dark, but the whipped coconut cream helps to lighten the consistency.

    Texas Sheet Cake

    This has been Jeni’s most talked about dairy-free flavor. Though the coconut is notable in the chocolate ice cream base, it takes a back seat to the big chocolate cake crumbles and bittersweet fudge.

    Limited Edition Flavors

    They often have a dairy-free limited edition option. On last check, they were offering Orange Freeze, which was inspired by the classic Orange Julius.

    Discontinued Flavors

    Despite rich flavor promises, Roasted Peanut Butter & Strawberry Jam swiftly move in and out of Jeni’s splendid dairy-free selection.

    Dairy-Free at Jeni’s Splendid Scoops Shops

    Beyond the creamy flavors above, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams offers several popular dairy-free and vegan sorbets. Flavor availability may vary by store, but the sorbets can include Frose, Riesling Poached Pear, Blackcurrant Lambic, Hot Toddy, Hard Cider, and/or Brambleberry.

    Both the sugar cones and cake cones are dairy-free and vegan at Jeni’s Scoop Shops, and you can enjoy your scoop with sprinkles. But they no longer offer any dairy-free sauces for topping.

    If you’re looking for tasty dairy free ice cream substitute, Texas sheet cake & truffle & cold brew/coconut cream are the best. The lemon, banana, sticky bun flavors aren’t worth it IMO.

    I can only speak for the Texas Sheet Cake, but this stuff is incredible. Although my mental image of a sheet cake is more on the vanilla side, I’m not complaining about this super chocolatey rendition one bit. The fudge and cake chunks add such a delightful chewy texture to each scoop, and while the overall effect is definitely high on the sweeter end of the scale, it’s not overwhelmingly so. This would be a hard pint to keep for more than one sitting.
