Salt & Straw’s policy is to introduce new limited-edition ice cream flavors about every month, according to its website. All are meant to scream decadence, and that includes even the vegetable-flavored ice cream varieties introduced this past summer. These offerings put carrots into Carrot Cake Batter with Pralined Hazelnuts, corn into Charred Corn Curd, Cotija, and Tajin, and spinach into Spinach Cake with Chocolate Tahini Fudge, among others.
This time around the inspiration is classic American desserts like bananas Foster and red velvet cake that will make sweet-loving vegans swoon. All five of Salt & Straw’s new vegan ice cream flavors pay homage to a different classic dessert.
Salt & Straw’s new vegan ice creams include Bananas Foster (featuring banana-infused coconut cream-based ice cream swirled with a non-dairy banana purée-infused caramel), Chocolate Sorbet (a rich dark cocoa ganache-based sorbet, enhanced with flaky salt), Toasted Oat Milk & Cookies (featuring a vanilla-cinnamon oat milk-based ice cream studded with chocolate chip cookie chunks and ganache), Peanut Butter Brittle Caramel Fudge (vanilla-flavored coconut cream-based ice cream with a semi-sweet caramel fudge swirl and flecks of peanut butter brittle), and Red Velvet Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting (red velvet batter-infused coconut ice cream with cream cheese-frosted chunks of red velvet cake). These amazing flavors will be available in-store and for shipping for a limited time — between December 30, 2022, and February 2, 2023, so get them while they last!
