The Best Gluten-free/dairy-free/soy-free Ice Cream


Mango04

Recommended Posts

It's called Tomberlies - www.tomberlies.com

You can buy it in San Diego or order it online. It will totally make you broke but the strawberry flavor is worth it. They make it with cashews, coconut and agave. It really tastes just like real creamy dairy ice cream. I've tried a few different types of raw vegan ice cream that were okay but this one is really, really amazing...

:) :) :)

I'm drooling already - I have yet to find a replacement for ice cream that tastes halfway decent. I'm gluten, dairy and soy intolerant (among other things).

I just emailed the link to the website to my husband as a Valentine's gift hint!!!! :P

Thanks for posting this .. I've been looking for ice cream too and this one is also corn free ..

I googled agave and found :

Certified organic Sweet Cactus Farms (SCF) Premium Agave Nectar is an exciting new sweetener naturally extracted from the pineapple-shaped core of the Agave, a cactus-like plant native to Mexico

There are appr 600 + calories and 30+ g of fat per 8 oz too ... Good for those trying to gain weight though ...

I wonder how hard it would be to make ice cream ... marcia

wait .. what is the price ??? OMG - It was $6 for a pint of vanilla and $60 to ship it ... OF course if you buy 12 pints the shipping is still $60 ...

Yep it's really really really expensive... But...a nice occasional splurge for those of us who can't do dairy or soy. You only really need a few bites too...as much as I like it I've never been able to eat an entire bowl at once...

I just tried the chocolate flavor....okay but not my favorite. I don't know why but the strawberry is soooo good. Just like real strawberry ice cream :)

Those do sound really good. :)

Shipping is a definate down though :(

It looks really yummy, but why on earth would it cost so much to ship :blink: ?! Does it come in a golden ice chest with two beefy men who hand deliver it to your door? If it does please let me know :P

I have diagnosed intolerances/allergies to gluten, dairy, soy, eggs and cane sugar. So I went without ice cream for over 2 years until a friend sent me a recipe book entitled "Vice Cream". From that book I've made pumpkin, raspberry and banana vice creams from raw cashews, fruit, spices and agave or maple syrup. There are many recipes with the cashew base, but also recipes with simple fruit and nut milk ingredients. You'll need an ice cream or sorbet maker and a blender, but with this book you can make almost any vegan ice cream you would like. See Open Original Shared Link where the book's author sells his book. You can also buy "Vice Cream" by Jeff Rogers through amazon .com for about $7. Enjoy ...

We wish we could send it in golden ice chests!! Actually the shipping container is part of the shipping cost problem. We are unwilling to use foam shipping container and have found what we consider the best alternative. It is a corrugated container lined with an insert made from pulverized minerals and recycled materials. We are looking into being able to ship in a smaller container that will bring costs down a bit. The other problem is the overnight shipping charges (we don't want any ice cream melting). It will be hand delivered to your door . The best way to get our ice cream without having to pay for shipping is to tell your local grocery store about us.

:P Thank You!!

Just to let you know, we will be at the Hillcrest Farmer's Market this Sunday, January, 14th from 9-1. We will be sampling 8 flavors, selling scoops and gluten-free brownie sundaes as well as take home 8 oz. containers. Hope to see you there!! :D

kabowman Explorer

Wow, does this look good. I even sent the link to my sister who can actually afford the shipping - even if I can't. Bummer, and too bad we don't live anywhere near a Whole Foods. Locally owned health food stores only so I will have to ask them.

I think even I could eat this without problems!!!! Maybe some day...

I thought i found a great dairy free ice cream yesturday and was so excited, but found this out: :( i had been getting the best lactose free ice cream by chapman's, but they stopped carrying it everywhere in my city and no one will order it in. does anyone know of good lactose free ice cream that we can get in canada???

Is Rice Dream Gluten Free?

All the ingredients in Rice Dream are gluten free. It is possible, however, that the finished product may contain minute residual traces of gluten from an enzyme used during processing. The enzyme derived from barley protein, and although the amount involved is very small -- less than 20 parts per million -- those with an extreme gluten sensitivity are advised to consult their health care practitioner about the suitability of Rice Dream for them

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.
    • Ello
      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
