FAQ's

  • Are there any nut free options?
    All Kawartha ice cream come from one production facility which produces products containing nuts as well as those which do not. There are many flavours that do not contain nuts, but we cannot 100% guarantee an absolutely nut-free status of any product. Although they take extreme care to clean and sanitize the plant between batches and at the end of the day, there is always a possibility that non-nut flavours can come in contact with nuts. We therefore cannot make any “nut free” claims for any of the ice cream products.
  • Are there any gluten free options?
    Similar to the concern regarding nuts, all the ice cream come from one production facility which produces products containing gluten as well as those which do not. There are many flavours that do not contain gluten containing ingredients but we cannot 100% guarantee an absolutely gluten free status of any product as there is always a possibility that non-gluten containing flavours can come in contact with gluten containing ingredients. If you’d like a current list of flavours that do not contain any gluten-containing ingredients as part of their recipe, please email Kawartha Dairy Ice Cream at info@kawarthadairy.com But do remember that we cannot guarantee their gluten free status and make no claims that they are gluten free.

  • Does the ice cream contain alcohol or animal products besides milk?
    Kawartha Dairy ice cream contains trace amounts of food-grade alcohol (less than 0.1% of the total recipe) which is found in artificial vanilla flavouring and is which is used in most of our ice cream flavours. This is within the acceptable level of Halal dietary standards. There are also NO animal products (besides cow’s milk) used in Kawartha Dairy ice cream.
