Vegan Strawberry Ice Cake is a wonderful treat for summer, and for anybody who enjoys a big bowl of strawberry ice cream!
Growing up, I loved eating ice cream cake at birthday parties, and I have always enjoyed fresh strawberries as a healthy and delicious snack. This Strawberry Ice Cake tastes somewhere between a fresh strawberry milkshake and strawberry cheesecake, crossed with ice cream cake… Except dairy-free, and homemade.
