Coconut & Vanilla Cashew Cream

© 2024 Wicked Foods Inc. All rights reserved.

We left dairy out of our kitchens a long time ago. Enter, the cashew nut! This special nut delivers a smooth and creamy consistency, helping you to whip up a delicious vanilla cream to add to any sweet treat. Mix it up with coconut milk and a few other special ingredients and you’re onto a winner. We love it layered up in a parfait with fresh fruit and our very own chia pudding, as a dip for strawberries, scooped onto warm berry crisp, and all over our breakfast waffles(if our mini plant-pushers have anything to do with it!).

You’ll be a) surprised at how easy this is and b) how scoopable it is! Trust us, this is the new real deal.
