Swedish Glace > Reviews

Advantages: Sophisticated flavour ice dessert.
Disadvantages: Still not that common in supermarkets and stores.

...health shop. I refer to "Authentic Swedish Glace." It costs £2.14 where I am and comes in a distinctive black plastic octagonal tub. You get 750ml of ice cream. The flavour I had been able to get was vanilla but there are others.(Chocolate and strawberry, for a start.) Now this ice cream is suitable for both vegetarians and vegans and is marked so on the label on the lid. It was a Vegetarian Society awards winner in 2002. It also does not contain ... Read review

Advantages: Non-diary, delicious taste
Disadvantages: Once people have tried it you will have to share, similar calorific content to traditional ice cream

...intolerant or vegan thanks to Swedish Glace you are no longer deprived delicious tasting ice cream. So far I have only tried the vanilla flavour. I was introduced to it at a childs birthday party where some of the guests were lactose intolerant and to avoid discrimination the host bought a couple of tubs of this ice cream so everyone could have the same. I was merrily eating away and quite shocked at the taste when I overheard someone saying how nice ... Read review

Advantages: Taste. Flavours. Vegan. Good availability.
Disadvantages: Cost. Only one size of tub.

Swedish Glace. (Please note for purely research purposes I have a 1/4 full 750ml tub to "test" :-) For a start, this will immediately interest anyone who loves dairy ice cream, but went vegan. Dilemma. You like ice cream but can't have it. Enter Swedish Glace. (And Toffuti, but I sure as hell can't find any Toffuti!) It's also good in that way for anyone with lactose intolerance, or any other animal food intolerance. First, by trying this out, ... Read review

Advantages: non-dairy, vegan and what a taste!
Disadvantages: price

I felt a bit dubious commenting on this product, as all the reviews only add to my own personal experience. But us minority allergy sufferers/vegans etc need to make our opinion heard, so here's my pennyworth. To date, this is the only non-dairy ice-cream I have found and it allways has a place in my freezer.I have tried three flavours, but go back to vanilla, it goes well with hot or cold desserts, just imagine, strawberries and ice-cream, hot ...

Advantages: the best vegan ice-cream available
Disadvantages: sometimes you just have to share

When I went vegan about 5 years ago there was hardly any food like this for us and the general assumtion was that we were just supposed to eat lettuce leves and rabbit food (if I hear this comment one more time I'm really gonna kill someone by the way). When my mum served me up a bowl of Sweedish glace I had a good old rant at her, you know the usual...you forgot I was vegan, you don't care about me, you're trying to trick me, why don't you put ...

Advantages: better than dairy ice cream
Disadvantages: if dieting you have to reduce portion size

...over the moon to discover Swedish Glace Ice Cream. Its so tasty I even tell the supermarket cashiers about it! As others said, the price varies depending where you get it from, and flavours are often limited. So far I have only found chocolate and Vanilla ones. In fact it is soooo scrumpiliciously gorgeooous, I sometimes end up having a full glace mountain in my dish, and begin at the peak then slowly eat my way down, MMMMM. Seriously though, ...

Advantages: Good for vegans and throughly delish
Disadvantages: Bit bad for the old waistline

...in later. I have found the Swedish Glace particurly gorge while watching a very good film. It is quite pricey (I have found you can only get it from Waitrose, I would possible like to see a change to this) Note to very kind reader reading my opinion- do not attempt to scoff a whole tub of this when depressed, I know it is tempting but you will feel a hell of a lot worse. I know for a fact that there are very few vegan products out there apart ... Read review
