So Delicious Review and Giveaway

For some reason, many of my contests lately have been food related. I'm not sure why this is, but I haven't been getting any complaints about it! In keeping with the theme, let's add another one.



Turtle Mountain, creators of the So Delicious® dairy free brand, is a privately held natural foods company headquartered in Oregon's lush Willamette Valley. Since 1987, Turtle Mountain has produced a variety of all natural, dairy free frozen desserts, beverages, and cultured products. Our products are carried in select grocery and natural food stores throughout the US, as well as Canada and Korea. Our quality measures are world class, featuring an allergen prevention program that has set a new benchmark for the food industry. (Taken from website.)

The So Delicious line of products ranges from sorbets, cultured coconut milk, ice cream and ice cream novelties, and much more. I really like that the line carries so many different products, so there's something that everyone will like. These products are also great for individuals who are lactose intolerant or who have any food allergies.

I received some free product coupons for review purposes. I think I've tried So Delicious ice cream many years ago, but was not exactly sure. I couldn't remember what it tasted like or if I liked it or not. I had to settle the score and try it again.

I bought the So Delicious vanilla coconut milk and the chocolate and peanut butter ice cream.


I had never had coconut milk and I wanted to try something new. The milk was sweeter than normal milk and was a lot thinner too. I normally drink fat free milk, and this milk was even thinner than that. It wasn't as cold as regular milk gets, I noticed. It had a nice balance of coconut and vanilla flavoring, and the flavors mixed well together. I did like it. A cup has 90 calories, which is the same as a regular glass of milk. This milk would be great for drinking alone, pouring on your morning bowl of cereal, in your coffee, or any other way you please!

When I purchased the ice cream I was thinking to myself, how can ice cream be made without dairy in it? No cream in ice cream? How crazy! I was eager to try it and see what it was all about. Chocolate and peanut butter is a great combination of flavors when paired together, and I knew it had to taste great. The container had a nice separation between the chocolate and peanut butter, so when you scooped out a scoop you would get an equal mix of both flavors. I thought that was smart, so you wouldn't taste one flavor more over the other.

What I immediately noticed was that the ice cream was not creamy at all due to having no cream in it, but had more of a soft sweetness to it. The chocolate and peanut butter had distinct flavors which I really liked and they both tasted great. The ice cream had the same consistency to it as normal ice cream does. I would love to eventually try other flavors of the ice cream too.
