This Valentine's Day, Get a Sneak Peak of "The Vegan Scoop"- The Delicious New Cookbook by Wheeler del Toro.Tough economic times got you tightening the belt this V-day? Rouge chef and consummate romantic Wheeler del Toro will be hosting a free chocolate dessert sampling at The Hungry Tiger Too. Desserts will be created from recipes featured in his new cookbook The Vegan Scoop.
The Vegan Scoop brings the pleasures of the ice cream parlor into the home with 150 recipes for delicious frozen treats that are so rich and creamy, they're better than the "real" thing. Developed by Wheeler del Torro of Wheeler's Frozen Dessert Company, a microcreamery based in Boston, the recipes feature soy-based blends and all vegan-certified ingredients, making them suitable for both vegans and those looking for dairy alternatives.
Health conscious ice cream lovers looking for a low-calorie alternative that still tastes great will also enjoy the innovative frozen desserts featured in The Vegan Scoop. In fact, compared to some of the leading commercial dairy brands, the non-dairy ice creams included in this book contain 50 percent fewer calories. Plus, they contain zero cholesterol and significantly less saturated fat.
