Santa Barbara, California, February 16, 2018 – Reveri, the first plant-based frozen dessert in the U.S., is an ice cream alternative that is redefining indulgence and changing the perception of a healthy dessert one spoonful at a time. Crafted using a proprietary process that blends whole fruits, vegetables and dietary fiber into a guilt-free treat, Reveri has the richness of premium ice cream, but with no added sugar or sweeteners, dairy, gluten, soy, or added fats and gums.
Averaging only 82 calories for a four-ounce serving, Reveri uses dates and whole fruit frozen at the peak of ripeness, to achieve its sweetness. With half the sugar of typical ice cream and twice the fiber of whole fruit – which slows the absorption of the natural sugar – Reveri is suitable for most diabetics. The frozen dessert is also certified vegan and GMO free.
Reveri is making its debut appearance at Natural Products Expo West (Room 303, Booth 7500) March 9 - 11, offering samples of its popular Chocolate Forest and Strawberry Patch flavors, which will now be available online March 1. Reveri will also introduce new flavors Vanilla Almond Blossom and Purple Mint Chip, which will be available online and in stores May 1.
“We all love dessert, but we wanted to create a dessert that loved us back,” said Karen Waddell, chef and founder of Santa Barbara, California-based Reveri. “Our goal was to create a rich, indulgent dessert that makes you feel good, during and after you eat it. This was our reverie – our dream – and we are thrilled to now offer this healthy, delicious treat that only tastes sinful.”
Reveri lies in the sweet spot of two booming food trends: the growth in plant-based foods, described by Baum and Whiteman as the Mega Trend of 2018, and consumers’ attitudes about sugar, which Mintel reported as the number one health concern among consumers in 2017. Reveri is committed to innovative plant-based recipes of consumer favorites, while never adding sugars or sweeteners.
Available in pints with a suggested retail price of $6.99, Reveri is available online at reveri.com and at select retailers in Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, CA. For more information, visit reveri.com, and follow on Facebook at www.facebook.com/reveri, and Instagram and Twitter at @ReveriDessert.
