There's a brand-new, dairy-free cannoli ice cream that's being served at plant-based Italian restaurant Baia in San Francisco, CA and it boasts an innovative vegan ice cream product. Created in collaboration with food technology startup Eclipse Foods, the ice cream treat is prepared with an “udderly indistinguishable” vegan milk made with whole food ingredients like ancient corn and cassava. These ingredients are designed to mimic traditional dairy products at a molecular level, which also means that the product does not rely on soy, nuts, coconut, stabilizers or gums.
The cannoli ice cream treat is served with a Sicilian pistachio ice cream base, layers of vegan ricotta cheese and cherries. There's also a Budino flavor that appeals to coffee lovers with an espresso ice cream base.
