The vibrant, non-dairy desserts are made with a base of bananas, coconut milk and dates, offering a naturally creamy and sweet alternative to ice cream. Hakuna Banana puts its own spin on classics like vanilla with varieties like 'Banilla,' which is made with real vanilla bean, and other indulgent yet healthy options like Choco Choco Chip, Banana Spice and Cashew Cookie Dough.
