Cool Treats for the Summer

Nana Creme offers up decadent, dairy-free desserts

NanaCreme dairy free dessert

Two years ago, my three-year-old niece ate a cashew off the car floor, as kids sometimes do. A frantic dash to the emergency room, an epi-pen in pocket, and one shaken up toddler later, the lives of our entire family changed. We all became expert nut investigators, reading labels and calling companies to make sure their facilities were nut-free. The one product we couldn’t find (and needed!) was ice cream.

So we created our own solution. Nana Creme is a delicious banana based ice cream alternative that is free of the top eight food allergens. We hope it’ll help you and your family enjoy life’s celebrations, free of the worry that comes with food allergies.

— Regina Klafeta, founder and creator of Nana Creme

Cremesicle Mimosa Float:

  • 1 scoop of Nana Creme Cremesicle
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1/4-1/2 cup sparkling white wine or champagne

Combine orange juice and white wine or champagne in glass. Top off with a scoop of Nana Creme. Enjoy!

 

Mint Chip Dipped Sundae Cone:

  • 1 package of waffle cones
  • 2 pints of Nana Creme Mint Chip
  • 1 cup dairy free chocolate chips
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil

Scoop Nana Creme into waffle cones and place in freezer until hardened

Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil together, and cool to room temperature

Dip the ice cream portion of the cones into the chocolate mixture

Sprinkle your favorite toppings on the top of the cone before chocolate hardens

Place in freezer or eat on the spot!
