Updated December 2020! After nearly a decade as one of America’s favorite dairy-free, sugar-free ice creams, So Delicious changed their formula. Yes, I’m sad to say that yet another brand has opted to mess with perfection in pursuit of the latest dietary trend. They added oatmilk to their No Sugar Added Ice Cream, increased the fat and calories, and reduced the carbohydrates. For some people, this move toward keto is good news. But for others who’ve loved this product for years … this isn’t the same product anymore.
So Delicious Coconutmilk No Sugar Added Ice Cream has Changed
The formula change of So Delicious Coconutmilk No Sugar Added Ice Cream happened right at the end of 2020, so be sure to leave your own rating and review below once you’ve tried this new formula.
The texture of the prior recipe was awesome. It was so smooth and creamy that I looked like an ice cream parlor jockey serving up perfect round scoops. I did find the alternative sweeteners a little overpowering at times, but my taste buds adapted a little with each bite. That said, the new recipe of their no sugar added ice cream is higher in both fat and alternative sweeteners (the flavors have more sugar alcohols), so I’m curious to see how they compare. I’ll update with our own notes once we’ve tried it.

Butter Pecan
This recipe doesn’t appear to be changed, so I’m leaving our prior tasting notes. The Butter Pecan was rich and filling – the way good ice cream should be. I’m a big fan of butter pecan, and really can’t get enough of the flavor. For that reason, I wished this one had a little more of that intense buttery flavor. Again, the sweeteners overpowered it a bit for me, but that didn’t stop me from sneaking spoonfuls throughout the day.
Ingredients: organic coconutmilk (filtered water, organic coconut), pecans, chicory root extract, acacia gum, erythritol, vegetable glycerin, pea protein, guar gum, sea salt, locust bean gum, monk fruit extract, natural flavor. contains: coconut.

Taste and texture are perfect
The vegan no sugar added vanilla ice cream is so good
New to Dairy Free
I have been dairy free/low sugar for about 30 days and dying for some ice cream. My expectations weren’t super high, however, this substitute did the trick! Chocolate was good and butter pecan even better. Excited to try the other flavors.
review of sugar free
I have been buying So Delicious coconut ice cream for many years after my son was diagnosed being gluten and dairy intolerant. It is a very delicious substitute to regular ice cream. We had to purchase the sugar free coconut chocolate because the stores we usually purchase from is unable to stock it with the sugar. The sugar free is tolerable, but not that good. I only buy it because my son likes to mix the vanilla and chocolate together. Sugar free is hard to soften and mix. My son can not eat nuts of any kind, so the other flavors do not work for him. He eats plain coconut vanilla and chocolate ice cream. Very discouraging when I can not fine it.
melts in your mouth, not in the bowl
good coconut flavor and creamy in your mouth, but hard to scoop
The original - No sugar, all coconut milk formula was so much better.
As a lactose intolerant person who doesn’t eat sugar, I loved the original all coconut milk and no sugar ice cream and ice cream bars. I’m so disappointed with your new oat milk added formula. It isn’t nearly as creamy and rich tasting. The coconut flavor was a treat. The new formula doesn’t taste creamy and the texture is not nearly as good.
Fudge Pipsicle
The Fudge Popsicle sucks!
It has no flavor!
Because it was so expensive at Publix, I am forcing the rest down to keep from wasting it.
The portions are too small.
A great find for us
I love this ice cream. It tastes great, and it’s gluten and dairy free. I love that there is not any added sugar. I don’t know of another brand on the market that I can eat. I feel great giving it to me family, especially since I’ve been watching their added sugar intake.
Outstanding!!!
I had the vanilla dairy free sugar free ice cream for the first time about a month ago, and I LOVED it!!! I haven’t been able to enjoy ice cream for more than 20 iiyears and am more than excited to find such a tasty ice cream treat!
So Delicious Sugar Free Vanilla Bean
I have so many allergies and absolutely loved this brand of ice cream until they changed the recipe. I thought there was something wrong with it, so I looked here for reviews and found I’m not the only one who feels the same. I will be returning it to the store. I could only consume about 1/2 bar when I said to myself, Why am I eating this, it taste awful?! Sorry, but you just lost a customer.
USED to be the best, new recipe NOT EDIBLE!
I was really excited to have this icecream again after not having it available where I lived for over a year. This USED to be the only icecream I would eat–absolutely wonderful, creamy and chocolatey and no after-taste. And being sugar-free made it just that much better. However, when I took a nice big bite last week I was very disappointed to see that they have drastically changed their recipe. It is now completely inedible. It has a strong artificial, almost plastic-like stevia sweetener flavor and tastes nothing like it used to. So disappointing and such a waste of $8! Complained to SD customer service and got a generic response back.

It’s very good however it’s not 1 gram of sugar per serving, it’s actually 6 grams of sugar per serving. You have to count the 5 grams of sugar alcohol per serving.
I live 30643 area code..I have tried so hard to buy the no sugar added mint chip with no success…I’ve tried to order vis Publix nearest me without luck. So disappointed.
I wish I could help you Rebecca, but I’m not affiliated with them. You might want to contact So Delicious directly as I don’t see it available in your area when I searched their store locator on their website.
Your facility sounds as though lines and all tools are cleaned sufficiently for people with nut allergies. Am I just assuming? My granddaughters doctor said to find out whether nuts are processed in the facility before buying…please respond
Glenis, you would need to contact So Delicious directly to get allergen information on their facility. This is an unbiased third party review – Go Dairy Free is not affiliated with them.
But why did they need to add Carageenan to the ingredients? It’s a cancer-causing ingredient and makes this product a no-go for me.
I’m not sure Barbara. They’ve reformulated a lot of their products to be carrageenan-free, but I guess they haven’t gotten to these yet. You might want to put in a request!
My husband’s cancer diet is sugar, milk sweeteners (except Stevia) free. He loves the chocalate, but I can’t get it here in town. They don’t handle the no added sugar icecream. Can it be mailed directly to me?
I haven’t seen a place that sells the So Delicious online. However, Halo Top recently started selling their new non-dairy ice cream online – I know it is much lower calorie, but I’m not 100% sure what sweeteners they use.
I’ve been looking everywhere for the no sugar mint, even ordered it, but it never comes to they are lying to me and never order.
One of your headlines says Do Delicious instead of So Delicious.
Oops, thanks Jillene! It’s fixed 🙂
What stores carry lactose free and sugar free ice creams
I couldn’t tell you for your area Jacki. You’d need to look at their store locator.
I absolutely love the chocolate & mint and chip no sugar added. This is hands down the best find for me during a diet or just staying healthy.
Thanks for sharing your feedback Jessica!
Can I purchase your product at Publix Grocery in Georgia
Unfortunately, I’ve only been able to find the vanilla at the Whole Foods where I live. I agree with Cara, it’s fair…I asked the Whole Foods to please stock some of the other flavors, but to no avail…would love to try the rest as I too have sugar problems.
I dunno, Alisa, I am kind of with you on this one! And normally, I am someone who CAN stand stevia in things. I’ve had the chocolate and the vanilla from this bunch. I confess to buying the chocolate for an ice cream sundae party, so I probably missed what it actually tasted like by smothering it in candy 😉 But the vanilla… it was just “ehh” and sort of fake-tasting for me.
