I am not going to lie: the words “gluten-free” scare me. As soon as I see them written across even the most delicious looking product, I immediately put it back on the shelf. Gluten-free makes me think of cardboard, of Styrofoam, of insipid food that is mean to keep you alive and not to give you pleasure.
But I have recently found the errors of my way and I have no other than Luna & Larry’s Coconut Bliss to thank for this! Organic, vegan, dairy, soy, and gluten free, this ice cream line is just to delicious for words. The flavors (Naked Coconut, Dark Chocolate, Vanilla Island, Mint Galactica, Cappuccino, Cherry Amaretto, Strawberry Lemon Love, Chocolate Hazelnut Fudge, as well as 3 new flavors coming out this June) are marvelous and creamy, never for a fraction of a second giving any hint that you are actually eating something that is good for you.
The Naked Coconut is by far my favorite and I can pronounce and recognize EVERY ingredient on the label: Organic Coconut Milk, Organic Agave Syrup, Organic Dried Coconut, Organic Coconut Extract, Organic Fair Trade Vanilla Extract). It has the best texture for ice cream (rock solid!) and melts slowly as you eat it. The fact that it is Fair Trade – as are the other flavors!- just adds another dimension to this wonderful product.
Luna & Larry’s Coconut Bliss is not just an alternative for all who have food allergies or dietary restriction – it is a must eat/try/indulge for everyone out there. Try it – you’ll see what I mean!
Would you like to try it? Here’s your chance!

I love the Mint Galactica. I usually get there ice cream up here in Portland Oregon whenever the owners are at events selling the ice cream. Looking forward to the kirtan that they are doing at the upcoming Krishna Das show.
Oh to show that I really want the ice cream,
I have left a comment
I subscribed to your twitter feed (mine is youryogi)
And have left a tweet to your site. But am new to twitter and not sure how to capture the link or send it to you.
Time to go to the gym now to work off those future calories that I may win.

My favorite is the Dark Chocolate. Second favorite is Naked Coconut. They’re really good mixed together half and half. You can find my name on Twitter.

I LOVE all of their flavors and it just depends on my mood and my migraine status (chocolate & migraine do not play well together) as to which one I'll choose. It also depends on the dinner menu. Usually keep 2-3 flavors in my freezer. I guess my all time favorite is the Mint Galactica.

Cappuccino is also AMAZING.
