Dairy-free soya ice cream is a frozen dessert made with soya as an alternative to dairy ingredients. It mainly provides carbohydrate and fat, with a smaller amount of protein. Per 100g, it contains 23g of carbohydrate, including 21g of sugars, and 12g of fat, including 3.7g of saturated fat.
Carbohydrate and fat provide energy for the body. A dairy-free label does not necessarily mean a product is low in sugars or saturated fat, which is relevant for people monitoring these in their diet. Soya is also a food allergen, so ingredient labels are important for people with a soya allergy. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.

About these figures
Values are per 100g of the food as described (8 samples, 4 products, including Swedish Glace ice cream). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.
These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: ADAS Laboratories, Nutrient analysis of ice creams and desserts, 1999.
