Restaurants Jakes introduces non-dairy ice cream

Posted by Cliff Bostock on Fri, Oct 24, 2008 at 2:03 PM

My post below about Lactaid's poor performance as micro-foam prompted this email:

I read your micro-foam blog post yesterday and, upon learning that you are lactose intolerant, wanted to send you information about NICECREAM which you might enjoy in lieu of regular ice cream. The new non-dairy frozen dessert was created and produced for Jake’s Ice Cream by Dr. Leon Lashner, a chiropractor and naturopath.

The product is made from coconut cream and all organic ingredients - it does not sacrifice taste for health benefits. The organic coconut oil present in NICECREAM has several well-documented health benefits, including zero cholesterol, great for hair and skin, has anti-microbial properties, stimulates metabolism and helps balance blood sugar. It is available at all Jake’s locations  (www.jakesicecream.com).

Available flavors include coconut, chocolate, vanilla bean, banana chocolate chip, passion fruit and double capuccino.

Actually, for inexplicable reasons I am not bothered by most ice cream or cheese. It seems only to be milk itself that makes me sick. But I look forward to trying the new product at Jake's.

He brought some of that by Cabbagetown Market for us to sample. After we tried it, we let other customers try it also and everyone gave it a thumbs up. It's got a nice creaminess you don't find in other vegan "dairy" products. It is VERY coconut-y.
