non-dairy creamer?
K. So I am currently drinking Coffeemate...which is yum, but scary if you look at the ingredients
I find lots of homemade creamer recipes calling for heavy cream and whatnot (YUM)...but I'm dairy free for baby. Trying to figure a substitute. The heavy cream makes it thick...using just almond/soy milk isn't going to be as thick as a heavy cream would. Is there a non-dairy version of heavy cream? |

Re: non-dairy creamer?
I'm not sure about a non-dairy heavy cream sub, but I dislike ALL milk subs. But i LOVE LOVE LOVE the So Delicious coconut milk creamer! They even have a french vanilla option if you're so inclined. It is thick, delicious and not very expensive

Re: non-dairy creamer?
I had no idea they made a coconut milk creamer!
This morning I had some horchata in my coffee. Not bad.

Re: non-dairy creamer?
First of all, Coffeemate is not non-dairy. It has casein in it. Is your baby OK with it? If so, you might not have to avoid the heavy cream anyway.
Wouldn't that be nice? I use Silk creamer, and Coffee Rich, both of which have scary ingredients, but they are truly dairy free. For the little amount I use, I am not worried about the soy and the trans fats.

Re: non-dairy creamer?
If you look in the ethnic foods section, you should be able to find canned coconut milk. You'll need to shake it before you open it because it separates. It is really rich and thick so a little will do you and is it good. I like it better than half and half.

Re: non-dairy creamer?
I tried the soy creamer from Trader Joe's this am. I like it! It's creamier than just soy milk. It has no dairy at all in it.
