Dairy-free Desserts that WOW!

December 18, 2024 by Emily Moore
  • What did the cow say when asked to try rice milk? “No whey!” 
  • What do you get when you cross a cow and a duck? Milk and quackers!

At Sticky Fingers Cooking®, we believe every child should experience the sweet magic of dessert—no matter their dietary needs. Whether you’re avoiding dairy or just curious about plant-based treats, these recipes are guaranteed to win over everyone at the table: 

Three Dairy-Free Desserts Your Family Will Love

  1. Silken Lemon Meringue Pie Pudding

Why It Wows: Bright, tangy, and creamy beyond belief, this no-bake pudding is made with silken tofu. Yes, tofu! A perfect project for little chefs who love zesty flavors!

Why We Love These Recipes

Here’s the magic: these desserts are dairy-free, made with wholesome ingredients, and simple enough to let kids take the lead in the kitchen! From blending fresh fruits to shaping doughnut holes, there’s a task for every tiny (or not-so-tiny) chef.

Tips to Make Dessert More Fun

  • Customize: Set up a topping station! Think fresh fruit, sprinkles, or shredded coconut.
  • Taste Along the Way: Let kids try the ingredients as they go—it’s a great way to teach them about flavors and how they come together.
  • Share the Joy: Make extra to share with friends, or family. Dessert is always sweeter when it’s shared.

Dairy-free desserts are a way to explore new flavors, get creative, and teach kids the value of inclusivity in the kitchen.
