Last summer we discovered Tempt non-dairy ice cream made from hemp, and it is definitely a must-try for the milk allergic or the lactose intolerant. More recently we discovered Purely Decadent frozen desserts made with coconut milk.
When I picked up this product to read the label I fully expected it to have eggs in it, or in the case of this cookie dough flavor – wheat. Much to my surprise I discovered that the only food allergens listed were soy (due to lecithin) and coconut (which is a rare allergy). Woo-hoo!!
After trying it, I have to say that I think the folks who made this product are absolutely brilliant for not using wheat cookies. The “cookie dough” is made from brown sugar, rice, and dairy-free chocolate chips.
I found the “ice cream” itself to be very creamy, without too much of a coconut taste. That said, I must tell you that my husband discarded his due to what he called a distinct coconut taste. But that’s okay – more for the rest of us!

Hi Colette! Thank you for your tasty review. We're delighted you discovered and are enjoying our gluten-free Cookie Dough Coconut Milk ice cream, and we hope you'll explore some of our other gluten-free flavors, too (like Turtle Trails, Pomegranante Chip, and Mocha Almond Fudge!) Since it sounds like your husband is not a big fan of coconut, he may prefer our soy-based ice cream, including the gluten-free Cookie Dough flavor! Here are some money-saving coupons you can use to try these or any of our other delicious dairy-free products: http://bit.ly/gW3Pkkc
Gail, thanks so much! Unfortunately we have soy allergies, so the soy versions are out for us.
I love this ice cream also. Being allergic to dairy and gluten it has been a life saver for me :)
