Craig’s Vegan Enters the Frozen Novelty Market with Pre-Portioned Minis

Craig's Vegan Minis.jpg
August 12, 2023

Craig’s Vegan, maker of deliciously indulgent ice cream classics with a modern plant-based spin, today announced the launch of its single, pre-portioned Minis, a first for the plant-based ice cream category. Available at select retailers in August, the celeb-adored plant-based brand will offer five flavors in the new mini size, including Melrose Mint Chip, Kursten’s PB Krunch, Perfectly Chocolate, Sunset & Strawberry and Killa’ Vanilla. 

Perfectly portioned for those imminent on-the-go sweet cravings, Craig’s Vegan Minis feature the same creamy and rich plant-based desserts that consumers and A-listers love, now in a 3.6-ounce mini size with a spoon in the lid. Offering classic flavors with names inspired by the brand’s California roots, Craig’s Vegan chef-crafted ice creams are made with a creamy, premium cashew base that is 100% vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free, and kosher. 

“A recipe we’ve worked on perfecting for years, our plant-based ice cream delivers on both taste and texture thanks to its creamy cashew base,” said Founder and Restaurateur Craig Susser. “As we continue to see increased demand for dairy-free desserts and the frozen novelty space, we’re excited to offer our fans the same decadent ice cream experience in a plant-based and nostalgic mini form—no sharing required.”

 Craig’s Vegan Minis will be available in the frozen section of select retailers as well as direct to your doorstep online beginning in August with an SRP of $3.49. 

In addition to its scoop shop in Las Vegas, Craig’s Vegan can also be found on the menus of popular restaurants like Johnny Rockets, Fatburger, and Burger Lounge in iconic classic shakes. Craig’s Vegan is available at natural and conventional grocery as well as independent stores across the country, as well as online.

 

About Craig’s Vegan
In 2011, Craig Susser opened Craig’s Restaurant in West Hollywood, where he worked with Executive Chef Kursten Kizer to create a vegan, cashew-based ice cream for the menu in 2016. Soon the requests for to-go scoops became too frequent to ignore, and in 2018, the brand launched a pint-sized line of its vegan ice creams. By 2022, the brand had opened an ice-cream-style parlor in Las Vegas and partnered with influencers Emma Chamberlain and Tinx to create two iconic collaborations. The brand now offers six delicious flavors, including Melrose Mint Chip, Kursten’s PB Krunch, Cold Brew Coffee made with Chamberlain Coffee, Killa’ Vanilla, Perfectly Chocolate, and Sunset & Strawberry. Craig’s Vegan can be found at grocery stores, as well as online, direct to your doorstep from the website.
