Each small batch is made with care and the best, thoughtfully sourced ingredients. They currently work with UNFI and DPI for distribution as they project to continue to grow throughout the west coast states. They offer 4oz, 8oz, and 16oz cups that range from $4 - $9 SRP.

Using only plant-based ingredients, like sprouted almond milk and coconut cream, Millie’s stays true to the heart of the business through every spoonful, teaming up with local San Diego breast-cancer foundation, Shades Of Pink.

About Millie’s Organic Vegan Gelato:

Good-for-you gelato that gives back! Millie’s Organic Vegan Gelato has been praised by Gluten-Free Living Magazine as one of the “innovators bridging the ‘dairy’ gap” and is proud to cater to the growth with 8 USDA Organic Certified-dairy free-soy free-gluten free flavors; including 2 nut-free options. Founder and award-winning chef, Susan Sbicca, set out to create a healthy, yet indulgent treat that everyone could enjoy. Each delicious Millie’s flavor is 100% plant-based, organic, gluten-free and soy-free. First they start with homemade almond milk or coconut milk and cashew or coconut creme for that velvety base that is rich in enzymes and protein. Then organic ingredients are selected from local farmers so they are full with natural sweetness and nutrients.Their chocolate-based gelatos are crafted with South American cacao- high in magnesium and antioxidants for enhanced mood and brainpower. They finish by sweetening each flavor with organic blue agave and coconut palm sugar. Millie’s believes each ingredient matters, so they only pick the best.
