    Tofutti Frozen Dessert is The Original Dairy-Free Ice Cream

    10
    By Alisa Fleming on June 7, 2020 Dairy-Free Ice Cream Reviews, Product Reviews

    Updated September 2022! Before oat milk ice cream, before almond milk ice cream, before coconut milk ice cream, there was Tofutti. You don’t hear about this brand much anymore, because there are so many other dairy-free ice creams on the market. But Tofutti frozen dessert has a loyal following, and for good reason – it’s pretty tasty. My former cheese- and cream-loving husband will even tell you it’s one of the best on the market.

    Tofutti Dairy-Free Ice Cream Reviews and Info - Vegan, Soy-Based, Classic.

    Tofutti Frozen Dessert is The Original Dairy-Free Ice Cream

    My husband and I spotted Tofutti on for $2.50 one evening, many years ago, and couldn’t resist picking up a pint to try. We honestly thought it was too cheap to be great, but we were pleasantly surprised. In fact, it was the first dairy-free ice cream that my husband truly enjoyed and wanted to go back to get more. And back we went, to get another vanilla pint .. and another .. and another. These days, it’s become much harder to find. But hopefully their new packaging redesign will help bring it back to light.

    We were invited to dinner over at a friend’ house. They served the vanilla tofutti ice cream with vegan apple pie. It was so delicious! I think their vanilla flavored ice cream is better than most other non-dairy vanilla flavored ice creams out there!

    The vanilla Tofutti frozen dessert is amazingly creamy, perfectly sweet, and somehow just hits that “mmm” spot. I think it’s the addition of cocoa butter that makes it special. Though I wouldn’t call it an identical swap for ice cream, it has its own charms and still fulfills those cool and creamy cravings. It was delicious atop apple crisp, with brownies, and simply drizzled with homemade dairy-free chocolate magical shell.

    Response from Go Dairy Free

    That’s so frustrating! I checked with the company, and it is still out there. It tends to be sold more at natural food stores now (including independents). They have a store locator on their website.

      To my surprise, the only non dairy “dessert” at Winn Dixie while passing by a red neck county. Wanted some treat for the road and paid full price. I used to spend 8 dollar fast food lunch, not anymore. So 6 dollars for a pint of healthy non garbage delight is a no brainer.

      Took a spoonful, taste buds kick in and I had to scan each and every corner of the packaging for milk or lactose ingredients. I could not believe this ice cream was 100% vegan. The flavor, texture is there.

      Would have liked another flavor, but only one available was Vanilla.

      I would buy this ice cream again and do recommend it.
