The New York-based scoop shop’s line of ice cream bar creations are now available in three brand new vegan-friendly flavors for nationwide shipping
Van Leeuwen Ice Cream, the nationally recognized brand known for its made-from-scratch vegan ice creams, has announced the launch of Van Leeuwen Vegan Ice Cream Bars, a new line of indulgent vegan treats inspired by classic favorites. The highly anticipated line introduces new vegan flavors that are made from premium, simple, non-dairy ingredients while never skipping on the perfected Van Leeuwen taste.
Now available in three distinct vegan oat milk-based flavors, including Vanilla Wildberry Swirl, Brown Sugar Honeycomb, and Triple Chocolate Swirl, the bars are a perfect option for vegan and non-vegan dessert lovers alike – like we say “It’s not vegan ice cream, it’s ice cream that happens to be vegan.”
“We haven’t been this excited about a product launch since we introduced our vegan line eight years ago – ice cream bars have long been a dream for us at Van Leeuwen,” said Ben Van Leeuwen, co-founder and CEO of Van Leeuwen. “We’ve spent the past 12 months perfecting every element and we are blown away by what we have been able to create. Our vegan ice cream bar creations feature the vegan ice cream our customers know and love, enrobed with thick, custom blended, high-quality fair trade chocolate and crunchy coatings that create an entirely new Van Leeuwen experience. They aren’t keto, low fat, or sugar free. But they taste good and will make you happy!”
The debut of the vegan Ice Cream Bars is a nostalgic addition to the brand’s product line as Van Leeuwen’s co-founders Pete and Ben Van Leeuwen grew up driving an ice cream truck in the summer and selling ice cream on sticks. The reflection is a sweet token of how far the Van Leeuwen brand has come as it launches its version of Ice Cream Bars with premium yet simple, high-quality ingredients that everyone can enjoy.
Van Leeuwen vegan Ice Cream Bars are now available through Van Leeuwen’s online store and for nationwide shipping. A selection of the flavors will be available in select grocery stores across the country beginning in March 2021, including Whole Foods, Giant, Central Market, Big Y, and Heinen’s.
