I wonder how that Cool Hemp ice cream tastes? Maple sounds like an interesting flavour! I'll have to try some. But you didn't even mention my favorite dairy-free ice cream: So Delicious made with organic coconut milk (I think it's Purely Decadent coconut milk in the States). It's even better than Coconut Bliss!

Different strokes, I guess. I've had both So Delicious coconut and Coconut Bliss...and with all due respect, there's no comparison. Coconut Bliss tastes fresh and natural and handmade, and So Delicious, while good, tastes mass-produced. The textures are completely different too.

I've had all the ones listed here and by far the best is Organic Nectars. They really nailed it. Unbelievable taste, texture and flavors. It's the only one that doesn't have an after taste and I think it's the lowest in calories too. Excellent!

I have to agree with Sally. Organic Nectars ROCKS. Their pistachio is the best. The coconut ice creams all taste like... well... coconut. And forget the soy and rice products. I tasted one of the hemp ice creams and it's ok, but ordinary. Go with the Organic Nectars Pistachio (Chocolate Hazelnut, Coffee and Goji berry are also great) and you won't be sorry.
