Eclipse Foods is proudly introducing what it calls "a new plant-based ice cream that is indistinguishable from its dairy counterparts" that's full of flavor, texture and clean ingredients that support sustainability. The disruptive plant-based dairy brand sets itself apart by replicating milk on a molecular level, which yields a finished product that is said to taste, feel and function just like a dairy product. Some of the ingredients that are involved in the making of the innovative product are ancient corn and cassava, which form a liquid ice cream base that can be used in any kind of ice cream machine.
The plant-based ice cream is free from soy, nuts, gluten, coconut, GMOs, gums or stabilizers, which not only appeals to those with allergies but people who are looking to make healthier, more sustainable and cruelty-free food choices in general.
