Salt & Straw Launches Dairy-Free Black Forest Cake + Vegandulence Flavor Series

Salt & Straw ice cream is kicking off the new year with two indulgent, entirely vegan debuts: the Vegandulgence Series and a brand-new Black Forest Ice Cream Cake that’s both vegan and gluten-free.

One fifth of all flavors on Salt & Straw’s menu is always vegan, and every January the brand goes even bigger and bolder, celebrating accessibility and inclusivity with a full month dedicated to decadent dairy-free treats. This year’s rich, decadent flavors include:

• Blood Orange Froyo Creamsicle - Tart and silky blood orange olive oil sorbet swirled together with creamy Cocojune coconut frozen yogurt
• Chocolate Pistachio Milk & Cookies - Nutty pistachio-cashew ice cream flecked with TCHO chocolate stracciatella and crumbles of housemade vegan shortbread
• Bananas Foster with Candied Pecans - Banana-infused coconut cream drizzled with bananas foster caramel and studded with candied pecans
• Peanut Butter Brittle Caramel Fudge - Creamy coconut vanilla ice cream streaked with peanut butter, a coconut caramel fudge swirl, and flecked with shards of housemade peanut butter brittle
• Death By Chocolate Chocolate Cake - Chocolate barley milk ice cream swirled with chocolate caramel fudge, hunks of chocolate cake and chocolate ganache

Building on the viral, Jake Shane–approved success of their Almond Brittle Ice Cream Cake, Salt & Straw is also debuting the Black Forest Ice Cream Cake. Their indulgent spin on the classic German dessert layers thick slabs of gluten-free chocolate cake with rich Cocojune coconut frozen yogurt, generously swirled with housemade tart cherry jam and finished with a crunchy crown of crystallized cacao nib crumble. The result is equal parts chocolatey, fruity, creamy, and crunchy—made for celebrations of all kinds, and designed so everyone can enjoy a slice.
