Plant-based ice cream

British ice cream producer Jude’s has introduced the Ultimate Plant-Based Ice Cream Tasting Box, along with the return of its Classic Tasting Box.

The tasting box - which is available for home delivery - features 18 mini tubs in six flavours, including Jude’s latest plant-based Mint Chocolate and Strawberry. Other flavours include Vanilla, Salted Caramel, Chocolate and Mango Sorbet.

In its 2023 Impact Report released earlier this year, Jude’s highlighted that its plant-based ice cream has, on average, a 47% lower carbon footprint than dairy, and uses up to 80% less land. This supports Jude’s commitment to lower its carbon intensity by 43% by 2030 (vs 2020 baseline).

As well as the mini snacks, the tasting box includes the recipe book Judes: Ice Cream & Desserts, a handy tote bag and its limited print run Plant Based Recipe Collection, all available online for an RRP of £68.50.

Jude’s Classic Tasting box includes an array of ‘out there’ flavours, including Black Coconut, Rose, Gin & Tonic and Ginger Spice, among others.

The second-generation family business, based in Hampshire, has been making ice cream for more than two decades, partnering with some of Britain’s top chefs to devise on bold, innovative flavours that have garnered it over 70 Great  Taste Awards. 

As a BCorp, Jude’s believes that business should be a force for good, putting people and the planet before profits. Its product portfolio also includes a range of lower-sugar kids’ ice creams, along with dairy and vegan ice cream, stick bars, Little Jude’s kids’ lollies, custards, shakes and sauces.
