Who said vegans can’t scream for ice cream?
Dairy-free and plant-based brands have stepped up their game and set up some seriously delicious ice cream shops all across the country. From the classic flavours to lip-smacking desi spins that will leave you begging for more, they’ve got it all, minus the moo juice.
It’s no secret that the demand for healthier, plant-based foods is skyrocketing. The global health and wellness food market was valued at $841 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach $1 trillion by 2026.

And let’s not forget the rising stars like White Cub, a standalone vegan brand that’s turning heads with creations like Indian Wedding and Banarasi Paan. Everyone is jumping on board to cater to the plant-based frenzy, and we’re here for it.
