Salt & Straw Churns Out Upcycled Food Ice Cream Flavors

For the month of June 2023, Salt & Straw churns out their Upcycled Food Series of limited-time ice cream and frozen dessert flavors. According to the brand, upcycled food "uses ingredients that otherwise would not have gone to human consumption, are procured and produced using verifiable supply chains, and have a positive impact on the environment."

Salt & Straw's Upcycled Food Series consists of five ice cream flavors (each created in partnership with a different food manufacturer dedicated to reduce waste through the use of upcycled food). They are:

- Lemon Curd & Whey gelato made with Spare Food Co. Lemon Ginger Tonic

- Cacao Pulp & Chocolate Stracciatella Gelato made with Blue Stripes Whole Cacao Blend.

- Malted Chocolate Barley Milk frozen dessert (vegan) - Malted chocolate barley frozen dessert with candied fig jam. It's made with Evergrain barley rice protein made from barley that's been saved from the beer brewing process.

- Salted Caramel & Okara Cupcakes frozen dessert (vegan) - Oat milk ice cream folded with Renewal Mill's Vegan Chocolate Cupcake and salted caramel.

- Day-Old Bread Pudding & Chocolate Ganache - Bread pudding made from day-old bread from Urban Gleaners, ice cream, cinnamon, and chocolate ganache.

The Upcycled Food ice cream flavors can be found in Salt & Straw scoop shops as well as from their online store for a limited time now.
