"We believe that everyone, no matter their dietary preference, should be able to enjoy Häagen-Dazs," reports Juliane Trenholme, marketing vice president at Nestlé Canada. "Consumers recognize Häagen-Dazs for its creamy texture, simple ingredients and indulgent flavours which is why we created a new plant-based collection. Each new flavour is made in Canada and is designed for consumers who want a plant-based option without any compromise on texture or taste."

The Plant-Based Collection features three exciting new flavours:

Häagen-Dazs Plant-Based Chocolate Peanut Butter: Rich chocolate frozen dessert with creamy peanut butter swirls

Häagen-Dazs Plant-Based Vanilla Raspberry Truffle: Vanilla frozen dessert with raspberry ribbons and truffle pieces

Häagen-Dazs Plant-Based Caramel Fudge Chip: Caramel frozen dessert with fudge chips and almond-based caramel ripple

To deliver the signature Häagen-Dazs creamy and smooth taste without the use of dairy, the frozen dessert collection uses an oat base as the main ingredient. Then, the ice cream processor adds delicious flavours like chocolate, vanilla and caramel and elevates them with decadent sauces and inclusions for a dessert experience that's vegan certified and every bit as delicious as dairy-based ice cream, according to the company.

Häagen-Dazs Plant-Based products are now available in the majority of major grocery stores across Canada for a suggested retail price of $6.99 for a 16-ounce pint.
