Vegan Sweets (Available at a Location Near You!)

A vegan lifestyle can sometimes be difficult, but for anyone concerned about losing the great taste and texture of their favorite sweets, fear not! There exists a vegan alternative for almost any sweet you can think of. And if you're too busy or tired to make it yourself, there are many vegan retail options that taste phenomenal!

Double Rainbow, a gourmet ice cream shop founded in San Francisco, was awarded "The Best Ice Cream in America". Luckily for everyone staying away from dairy products, Double Rainbow also offers many "soy cream" flavors (which I highly recommend for vegans and non-vegans alike...so delicious!). Creamy Mint Chocolate Chip or sweet Blueberry are just two of the flavors available; both are new favorites of mine that will be in my freezer from now on! Double Rainbow soy creams can be purchased at many retail stores, such as Whole Foods and other markets. For a list of retail locations with Double Rainbow in your area, click here.

In addition to a sweet ice cream treat, the well-liked bakery Sprinkles Cupcakes now offers a vegan version of their popular red velvet cupcake. For anyone craving that ultra-sweet cupcake (without any animal products!) Sprinkles is the best option! For a list of current and upcoming Sprinkles locations, click here.
