Steve's Speculoos Cookie Butter Dairy-Free Frozen Dessert
Coconut Cream Base blended with Speculoos Cookie Butter and Speculoos Cookies
This was honestly the flavor I was most interested in from Steve's this year. I've never had one of their vegan frozen desserts so I was interested to see what they brought to that side of the market. That and the fact I've heard so many great things about their vegan lineup.
Another plus is that even though it is coconut based, the coconut doesn't take things over. It's more of a supporting flavor to the rest of the components. It's subtle, sweet and as pure of a coconut flavor you'll find. It actually works perfectly with the speculoos.
While it says it's blended with speculoos cookie butter, they mean blended in to the base and not as a swirl, so the flavor is present in every bite. Those undeniable spices are present with the addition of coconut notes in the background of each spoonful. This stuff is delicious and I'm beyond shocked at how much I'm enjoying a vegan treat.
Out of all the speculoos and cookie butter flavors on the market, this one is by far the greatest I've tried. Yes, this one even beats out big boys like Ben & Jerry's version and the Haagen-Dazs version from a few years back. If your local grocery store carries this, get it. I don't care if you're 100% against vegan products and are a proud meat eater. This will change your mind on all things vegan forever. Buy it, love it, thank me later.
Verdict? GOAT vegan frozen dessert (greatest of all time to you not so abbreviation savvy)
Buy Again? I need to try their other vegan options but there's no doubt this will be making return trips to my freezer
I so wish I could try it in my part of the gosh darn world, but I enjoyed tasting it vicariously through you. I am so anti Vegan / Organic / gluten free that I am probably missing out on some decent treats. Thanks for the encouragement to give that crap a try I guess.

SOME OF THAT VEGAN / ORGANIC / GLUTEN FREE STUFF MIGHT TASTE GOOD

I have had another vegan flavor of theirs, Cold Brewed Cinnamon Coffee, and it was awesome! Surprisingly really like a premium ice cream.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't have known it was coconut-based/vegan/whatever if the container hadn't said "Dairy-Free."
ReplyDeleteJust barely behind B&J's ice cream/cookie bits, but the awful core of that flavor drags down that pint (7-7.5) enough for Steve's (8) to be my favorite of the 4 Speculoos flavors I've tried. Good amount of cookie bits, and the base had a great texture. First time I've tried Steve's but won't be the last.
Why oh why can't I find it anymore?????
