That vegan ice-cream place sounds incredible. The pride of making things instead of buying what's available. That's an appreciation of food I absolutely adore and is ingrained by the culture I grew up in. Sadly there is no ice cream shop like that - I'm aware of - where I live.
Merle! Your vegan ice cream had an amazing texture. With the combo of cocoa fat and coconut oil and cashew fat it perfectly immulsified. I can tell just by sight that it had a striking similarity in texture to the dairy ice cream. I 100 percent think you nailed this one and now I desperately want this it looks so good.
That's amazing! It always makes me so happy when people can have the same tastes they love without harming animals/the planet. I wonder if I can make vegan ice cream with country crock plant cream...
@@paramere I think the best help we can give to our planet is to stop procreation. There's too many of us here already and the more people, the more harm it does to the environment.
@@paramere the single biggest thing we as individuals can do to help the planet is go vegan. ~85% of arable farming is used produce livestock feed, meaning a vegan lifestyle uses less land, not to mention the amount of water used in the dairy industries and the amount of methane given off by meat and dairy cows. Also the word organic is a marketing ploy and has no real meaning as eggs coming from factory farmed hens could still have « organic » slapped on them.
@@k3qever413 Obviously. But you can't expect everyone to not want to have biological children. That's a far larger sacrifice than simply not consuming animal products and reducing your waste as much as you possibly can. Everyone should do as much as they can and if for you that means not having biological kids that's your choice. Where I live people have less than 2 kids on average so the population is already going down.
This looks amazing, I'd love to try it someday. In the meantime, you can make incredible ice cream at home just by mixing a can of sweetened condensed soy or coconut milk (available at most grocery stores) with whatever flavours you like (try cocoa powder, or a cup or two of smashed vegan honeycomb, or peppermint flavouring and dark chocolate chips - literally anything you can think of will work), then in a separate bowl whisk vegan cream (lentil-based cream works incredibly well, but any vegan cream that can be whipped is fine) until it forms stiff peaks, then take about half a cup of the whipped cream and mix it thoroughly into the condensed milk to make the next step easier, then gently pour the rest of the whipped cream on top of the condensed milk mixture, and GENTLY fold everything together until it's all properly mixed. Do not stir violently, use a gentle folding technique so you don't collapse the cream. Pour it into a container and freeze, no ice cream maker necessary. It'll be the creamiest, tastiest ice cream you've ever eaten, I promise you that.
@miss tery brave robot makes cow free ice cream. They use fermentation to recreate real dairy but from plants. It's pretty cool and it's a great vegan option for anyone who wants that dairy taste
@miss tery You have to start somewhere. :) A lot of the meat commercially available in supermarkets is also horrible quality and horrid for your health. So your health will thank you, too, if you cut down on meat. Especially red meat or heavily processed meat.
Maybe Goodful can show vegans with other dietary restrictions? It's really hard to be plant based with conditions like celiac, food allergies, medically necessary low carb or low fiber diet, etc.
Yes!! I'd love her to do a day's worth of vegan recipes that are also gluten free, nut-free, and soy-free. Or some other challenge for allergen-friendly vegan food.
That’s a pleasant surprise since i thought gelato was super popular there. Do you make it or buy it? And i’m looking to take a trip to italy, any vegan italy tips?
@@Wwetitanfan27 I buy it! They have it everywhere, from cheap supermarkets like lidl to artisanal shops, you just need to look for water based ("all'acqua") ice cream or just the vegan label. Most supermarkets have vegan/vegetarian corners where you can find all the plant bases foods in one spot, but it's mostly for processed foods like vegan meats etc. Look up menus in advance on the internet, buy vegan snacks at supermarkets for cheaper options and you should be okay :)
@@mel3824 I buy it, they have a chain store here called "pecora nera" (black sheep) that makes DELICIOUS water based ice cream. My go-to order is pistachios and dark chocolate. It's drool worthy
I've yet to find a vegan ice cream that gives me that same satisfaction as the dairy one. and believe me I have been looking, ever since I've discovered that I cannot have dairy. Aldi's coconut based chocolate peanut butter pints and raspberry bars are... almost there, but I have been absolutely dying for just nice, plain vanilla or chocolate. and either companies don't seem to make simple flavors or if they do, they taste NOTHING like the dairy version. P.S. I HAVE tried Tallenti's chocolate sorbetto. its good. still not quite there.
OMG I want some of that home made ice-cream it looks GORGEOUS 💕💕💕 and I'm so impressed with Dear Bella for making gluten free waffle cones. Those of us who can't eat gluten miss an ice-cream cone!!!
This reminds me of the best place I’ve ever been to, it’s not in LA but in Seattle at Frankie and Jo’s. Better than any ice cream place I’ve tried ever hands down. My only complaint is the $$$
They also have lab grown dairy nowadays in certain products like brave robot ice cream. And its only whey and casein so lactose intolerants can still have it! The future is upon as haha
@@halyoalex8942 haha, a lot of libraries are getting really modern. Mine has video game areas for teens, 3d printers, and laser cutters. I've never heard about checking out kitchen appliances though.
Mmmmh delicious. I have been vegan for 3 years now. And I love cheese. I have found many cheeses have become better. And many are very close to the real thing. But during all this time I have never seen a Priest cheese. Or "Prästost" in swedish. It has a very stong aged taste as it is a very long-aged cheese. And I love it. I want to make my own but I don't know how. Would you guys maybe know how to make it. Cause I'd love to learn how to make it. That's my suddgesttion for next video😄
She mentioned she use cane sugar, so is it still considered vegan because of how cane sugar get it’s color to make it white, or is the sugar not bleached?😊
Short answer; no. Making ice cream can be good and I’ve had some good ones, but they’re not the same as dairy ice cream and they never will be. I’ve done side-by-side comparisons and I’ve even been to ice cream shop where they sell, nondairy ice cream along with traditional ice cream. The same thing is true with milk, alternatives, and other dairy alternatives. I think it’s wonderful that we have options for people who need it or for people who would like to be plant-based. I think that vegan ice cream can be really good or really bad. There’s usually no in between.
Everything about this is great except for the sugar is there a way that you could’ve done a monk fruit sweetener or something like that to add the sweetness instead of adding actual sugar?
To everyone who sees this comment, keep pushing in life and never give up. Can't wait to see you successful one day and May God bless you!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You can make instant ice-cream with just a base of frozen ripe banana super creamy like stuff from a ice-cream van add frozen blueberrys bam boblegum ice-cream no ice cream machine required
Wow, wow, wow! Congratulations Merle! You knocked it out of the park! Maybe its time for high adventure and consider doing some more regional or off the beaten track vegan wonders. This time of the year in the Midwest, paw paws are getting ready to ripen. Even more daring yet, American persimmons, staghorn sumac, concord grapes, black walnuts, cranberries and if you dare to imagine, American chestnuts are ripening here. ((Chinese chestnuts might be easier to find.)) Ice creams, stuffings, gravies, holiday loafs, etc.. Maybe you could even have Will.i.am check it out!
If you did not know this already, there is another vegan ice cream recipe from tasty. The link for this recipe did not work for me either when I clicked on it. Maybe you could add blueberry and lavender to the other ice cream recipe that this one might be based on and use another vegan cheese cake recipe?
We need more Lindsay. Lindsay and Merle need to do more together. Her energy is amazing.
Agreed they both have positive beautiful energy! 🌞🌈🦋♥️✌🏼🔥🤘🏼
YES PLEASE!
ikr! Lindsay is so chaotic and Merle is like-zen
Goodful let Merle go! You should check out her channel if you enjoy her content. Merle O’Neil!
Merle looks absolutely gorgeous! I don’t know what she’s been doing but she is glowing! And her fit is fire too 🔥
i was thinking the same, her hair looks amazing too
She's banging in that dress too
Lindsay's shirt when they are back at the studio is the cutest!

In Indonesia, we have 'es puter', using coconut milk to replace milk. Kinda salty. The texture is more like sorbet than creamy.
In what world is Dear Bella only a 6 😩 but I’m so happy she loved the home made one
I was thinking at least 8 or 9
For those without access to the good-good from shoppes, as grocery store ice cream goes, Magnum and Hagen Dazs non-dairy pops are great!
Love their energy together!
That's amazing! It always makes me so happy when people can have the same tastes they love without harming animals/the planet. I wonder if I can make vegan ice cream with country crock plant cream...

@miss tery That sounds great! For my husband and me it was more or less an overnight decision but we had to use the rest of our non vegan groceries.

i feel you. everytime she puts cashew in something as a necessary(as in cant be substituted) i just die a little because otherwise it looks amazing
@@allesamazing You could probably just use more vegan cream cheese instead of cashews.
Yes!! I'd love her to do a day's worth of vegan recipes that are also gluten free, nut-free, and soy-free. Or some other challenge for allergen-friendly vegan food.
Yes!!! I'm gluten intolerant and Pre-diabetic so no sugar and low carb for me
I feel this! I have an allergy to peppers and pepper derived spices, and it makes being vegan so much harder
I WAS REALLY HOPING TO GET THIS RECIPE
I did this ice cream and it was the best thing I ever did!
Such a wonderful episode! Now I want this dang lavender cheese cake ice-cream!
I've been eating delicious vegan ice cream in Italy for years lmao it's literally the easiest food to veganise

A very entertaining episode!!!
I love how American this video is. They're going for ice cream in a car. Even the animation shows them arriving at the the shop is a car.
Lindsey is so lovely! Best episode 💚✨
I'd love to see you make German Cheesecake vegan, and I'll gladly sacrifice myself to be your guest.
It looked so good Omg 😭😭
Impo Cashew ALWAYS hits different 🤩
Looks really delicious 🎉
Wow... I'm kinda broke but I guess it's time to buy an ice cream maker

HAHAHA loved the two different reactions while trying your lavender/cheese cake ice cream xD
Oops! I just noticed that your Recipe link reports that it's not Available any more. Was there any update to Fix this. Thank you!
Can you post the recipe again it got deleted
Hi, the recipe link doesn't seem to work :)
They look really decadent
I just moved out of California and I miss the variety in vegan options. I’m definitely going to start making my own ice cream among other things.

How did you add sugar, you could have used honey or molasses
Not honey; lots of vegans don't use honey
@@lesmercredis all vegans don't use honey. If you pay for animal exploitation you aren't vegan
@@lorissupportguides true 👍🏼
not sure if you have ever noticed but molasses has a very strong flavor.
