Laura McQuarrie — September 23, 2023 — Lifestyle
At Expo East 2023, Sweet Tahini unveiled oat milk frozen desserts with tahini and unique flavors like Cardamom Pistachio and Cinnamon Date. These indulgent non-dairy desserts made with sesame butter are said to be rich and nutty in terms of taste, as well as supremely creamy.
“We know that everybody understands tahini is a key ingredient in hummus and is used in a savory sauce for falafel, but we wanted to show that in the Middle East, we use tahini in so many sweet products, like halva,” said Founder Hila Krikov.
As consumers look for ice cream products made with alternative ingredients, they're opening themselves up to creatively formulated recipes that go beyond the usual alt-milk ingredients.
