I Tested 5 New Vegan Desserts!

Hi all!

Happy Easter! In 2019, I did a similar post for savoury vegan foods, which you can check out here. Today I am going to review five new plant based desserts, giving them a star rating out of 5. I hope you all got to eat some delicious chocolate, despite being in quarantine. Without further ado, let’s get into it!

1.) ‘Joy’ – Coconut Key Lime Pie

I had high hopes for this new vegan dessert from Sara Lee. I love coconut and lime together. Thankfully, I was not disappointed in the slightest! It was so delicious, I would definitely buy it again. The creamy coconut frosting on top, mixed so well with the lime filling and crumbly crust. I want another slice right now! Simply cut the pie into halves; storing in the fridge for a few hours, before serving. It’s a great treat for entertaining at home. 

I gave it 5/5 stars.

2.) ‘Nannas’ – Apple & Sticky Toffee Snack Pies

As printed on the package, these are snack pies. Despite their size, just one on its own is very filling! I can confirm, they were so tasty. I already loved regular apple pies, but the sticky toffee element made them much more delectable. The crust was yummy and crunchy. These would go great with vanilla, soy ice cream on the side. Highly recommend! 

I gave it 5/5 stars.

3.) ‘Buono’ – Mochi Coconut Ice Cream

This dessert definitely isn’t for everybody. You either love mochi or you hate it. Mochi is an Asian dessert, made from glutinous rice; typically with a red bean, sesame or taro filling inside. I have eaten tons of mochi in the past but never in ice cream form. I really enjoyed this vegan dessert but I wish there other flavours, aside plain coconut. I may or may not buy them again. 

I gave it 4/5 stars.

4.) ‘Simply Wize’ – Custard Pastries

This was my least favourite dessert. I don’t know if it’s because the pastries were gluten free, but when I pulled them out the box, they smelled awful. I honestly thought they had gone off for a second. After baking them in the oven, they smelled a bit better. However, I was not a fan of the taste. The custard was probably the best part. The crust on the other hand, was not very nice. I would not buy these again but it’s good there is a vegan, GF option out there. 

I gave it 2/5 stars.

5.) ‘Vego’ – Nuts & Berries Dark Chocolate

Originally, I was going to taste test an authentic vegan Easter Creme Egg, I found on Flora & Fauna (order one here). Unfortunately, it did not arrive in time, so instead, I sampled the latest Vego Nuts & Berries Dark chocolate bar. Vego produces the best vegan chocolate I’ve ever tasted and this was no exception. It reminded me of a Cherry Ripe, with the dark chocolate and berries. So yum. Highly recommend. 

I gave it 5/5 stars.

Thanks so much for reading! 

Peace & Love xoxo
