What Are Your Brands & Flavors Of Gluten Free Ice Cream ?


Kelly J

Recommended Posts

Kelly J Newbie

I'm just curious, what are your favorite brands and flavors of gluten free icecream or frozen yougert? I heard directly from the Turkey Hill company that all of their flavors of icecream are gluten free unless it has cookie, graham cracker, brownie, etc. pieces in it. I'm still paranoid to try it though because i don't want to get glutened by cross contamination.

Edy's, except for the obvious ones like cookie dough. I buy the light ones. Really good.

Haagen Dazs creme brulee, can't have it anymore because of the casein though. All their flavors are gluten free except for the obvious. Chocolate sorbet for the others like me who need casein free.

I buy Breyers since it is a Unilever company and will disclose gluten products in the ingredient label.

I always go with Haagen Dazs too, but some of the not so obvious ones have gluten like Tripple Chocolate (there is wheat flour in the truffles) so you need to always read labels.

My favorite flavors are Mango, Mayan Chocolate, and Dulce De Leche

Haagen Dazs creme brulee...I keep pints of that in my freezer. The best comfort food. Carla I am sorry to hear you can no longer have it.

Breyers, Edy's, Ben & Jerry's are all my favorite. I also found Hersheys Cotton Candy ice cream that I love.

Chapman's buckets has Gluten Free right on the lid, and all of their smaller boxes will have gluten free before the end of the year. Very good ice cream.

I don't know if you can get it in the US though

I don't do dairy now, but when I did--Edy's was hands-down the favorite too. If you go on their website--they identify gluten-free flavors as gluten-free in the description.

Has anyone tried the new Breyer's Cyclones? As far as I know, there is only 1 flavor we can have (caramel cup swirl or something like that), but mmmm is it good! I missed the "Blizzard" type treats, and this is pretty darn tasty.

Now that I am eating dairy again I can't wait to try these.

My favorites are:

Haagen Dazs - Coffee Ice Cream (yet ironicly I hate coffee), Rocky Road

Ben & Jerry's - Chunky Monkey, Cherry Garcia and my latest discovery by them, Pistachio.

If you like Pistachio ice cream (even if you normally don't but you like pistachios), you must try this. It is the most incredible pistachio ice cream ever. It has whole pistachios in it and it's not that scary green color. It's become my new favorite.

I eat Open Original Shared Link. I don't eat much soy, but this is one case where I make an exception. It's very, very low in fat and calories and tastes amazing. I think their "Swiss Dark Chocolate" flavor is the best tasting chocolate ice cream I've tried in a long time.

:D

Chapman's in a box is marked Gluten Free as well as Peanut/Nut free - all important in our family. The taste is great and lots of variety.

Perry's has a lot of gluten-free flavors, and now have gluten-free clearly labelled on the package! Edy's is yummy as well.

Blue Bunny Ice Cream is all gluten-free except the obvious ones. Their Bunny Tracks is sooooo good.

swittenauer Enthusiast

My husband is a huge fan of Edy's Mint Chocolate Chip. It is awesome!

proger Newbie

most blue bell flavors are ok. my favorite is banana split!

also, philly swirl makes some popsicle like treats - both the fruit ones and fudgy ones are awesome!

and baskin robbins has several flavors we can have. my favorite is gold medal ribbon.

JenAnderson Rookie

I am absolutely in love with Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey. Just the thought of it brings on the drool! :ph34r: I think my husband wants to take out stock in their company. Also Blue Bunny is good. I'm a vanilla type person so I don't try too many of the different flavors they have.

I've had gluten-like reactions to even the most basic Breyer's and Hagen-Dazs flavors (including the ones that Wild Oats Grocery (this is a grocery local to Portland, OR, USA I think) says are gluten-free). I'm wondering if I'm dairy intolerant? I may have to look at that...

Has anyone else had reactions to ice creams that are designated gluten-free?

As an ice cream lover I'm addicted to Soy Delicious and WholeSoy brands, all flavors gluten free and casien free. Ever tried taking casien out of your diet? If you're finding reactions to other dairy foods good chance you cant have casien (milk protien) either.

Thanks Nellie. I haven't had reactions to cheese ('cept lots of snot). I tried Haagen Dazs' Dulche de Leche last night and it treated me just fine. Must have been something else I was eating at the same time.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
    • trents
      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash vegetables. I noticed my stools were suddenly formed, if a bit narrow. I knew then that the diarrhea was probably food related not medication related. I tried following the fodmap diet but honestly it was just too complicated, I just lived with pooping 8x a day and wondering how I'd ever get and keep a job once my children were in school.  This past December I got my yearly bloodwork and my triglycerides were high. I looked into Dr. William Davis (wheat belly author) and he recommended going off wheat and other grains. This is the first time in my life I was reading labels to make sure there was no wheat. Within 2 weeks, not only were my stools formed and firm but I was only pooping twice a day, beautiful formed Bristol #4.  Dr. Davis allows some legumes, so I went ahead and added red lentils and beans. Nervous that the diarrhea would come back if I had IBS-D. Not only did it not come back, it just made my stools even bigger and beautiful. Still formed just with a lot more width and bulk. I've also been eating a lot of plant food like tofu, mushrooms, bell peppers, hummus etc which I thought was the cause of my diarrhea before and still, my stools are formed. In January I ran a genetics test because I knew you had to have the genes for celiac. The report came back with  DQ 2.2 plus other markers that I guess are necessary in order for it to be possible to have celiac. Apparently DQ 2.2 is the "rarer" kind but based on my report it's genetically possible for me to have celiac.  I know the next step is to bring gluten back so I can get testing but I am just not wanting to do that. After suffering with diarrhea for years I can't bring myself to do it right now. So that is where I am!
