Wow, where did April go? Seriously! Anyhow, I finally have a long overdue review for you. About a month or so ago, So Delicious sent me some samples of their new product line to review. I can’t even begin to tell you how giddy I get at trying new products, and this one did not disappoint.
The first two products that I tried are their new Almond Plus milks (in Original and Vanilla), which taste great. I don’t often drink milk by the glass, but this was a tasty one, which I could totally dip cookies into, add to my smoothies, pour over oatmeal, or use in any recipe calling for milk (like pancakes, cakes, cookies, etc…). What really sets this milk apart from the others on the market, is the protein content. Most nut milks are very low in protein, which makes it a bummer if you’re looking for a milk with some staying power. These almond milks are definitely going to be part of my milk rotation.
The other delicious products that I got to taste, are from their new Almond Milk ice cream line. Yup, they’re also almond based. The ice creams are also lower in calories and fat than most other ice creams on the market, which is awesome, especially if you’re watching your girlish figure (as I frequently do). The flavor of the ice cream was really good, and came in delectable flavors like Butter Pecan, Cherry Amaretto, Chocolate, cookies And Cream, Mint Chip, Mocha Almond Fudge, and Vanilla, as well as almond milk ice cream bars. Whew, this was quite a tasting event! Oh, and the ice milks are also soy free too. And, they make chocolate-covered ice cream bars too! Yum!
So what are some of your favorite non-dairy milks and ice creams? Have you tried these new almond milks yet?

I might have to hoard these for myself since my husband is allergic to almonds.

Sounds like a great idea Johanna

Do they call it ice milk? That’s so strange.
We’ve just got some of the So Delicious stuff in Australia, and I am very addicted. I don’t like their coconut milk beverage at all other than the chocolate – which is amazing, but their ice creams are SOOOOO Delicious!

Matt, I think just the new almond stuff is ice milk. It’s not as rich as their other ice creams.
Julie Hasson
I may of been wrong about that. I think it’s actually Almond Milk Ice Cream. Oops!
Mattheworbit
It still sounds good.
Their turtle trails, and ice cream sandwiches, and their peanut butter chocolate icecream – is just… AMAZING!

I have not even seen these! My family is going to go nuts over the ice cream. Obviously. 🙂

I haven’t looked for the ice cream yet at the store, but I’d imagine it should be showing up soon. My family went pretty crazy over it. Nothing cooler than an ice cream delivery: )

My favorite is So Delicious’ Purely Decadent Almond Mocha Fudge.
I didn’t think I’d find an “ice cream” substitute once I have up dairy. As you know, I work in a grocery store and we do tons of tastings. At first, most of the ice cream subs tasted like old, freezer burned frozen yogurts. After a few years, they have pulled their act together and we have a few to choose from. I do like this brand the best out of all of them.
I also like making my own vegan ice cream but I need a bigger ice cream maker machine do-hickey because we seem to gobble it up. Or… maybe we should try some moder…ation. 🙂

We love So Delicious coconut milk ice creams and I buy them whenever they’re on sale. Just found the almond ones and what we’ve tried so far are also great!

Sorry about the double post. The first one looked as though it didn’t post, so I tried again.
