Wildgood Uses Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oil for Its Frozen Desserts
Laura McQuarrie — March 28, 2021 — Lifestyle
Wildgood is a new vegan brand that puts a different spin on olive oil ice creams, offering a variety of flavored frozen treats that are sustainable and plant-based. The brand backed by celebrity chef Bobby Flay makes creamy treats with Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oil and it is making its debut with eight flavors, including Sea Salt Caramel and Mango, as well as classics like Vanilla, Chocolate and Mint Chip.
The olives used to create the rich and creamy frozen dessert base comes from artisan ice cream maker Sotiris Tsichlopoulos' family orchards and the brand makes the most of time-tested techniques to create flavorful products. The dairy-free desserts are made with minimal ingredients (no more than 12) and the pints share less than two grams of saturated fat per serving.
