Didn’t live up to the hype

It says “outrageously creamy” on the sign but mine was quite icy

Delicious!

Delicious ice-cream! You can choose a vanilla or chocolate base, and then your toppings.
It's also quite affordable for a central London vendor.

Tasty!

Campout-weekend was H O T this year, so the lines for both ice cream vendors were terribly long all the time. I got the VCO special; vanille and chocolate soft serve swirled together. The chocolate did most of the talking; I couldn’t taste very much of the vanilla at all. The toppings worked really well though, I just wish they’d served the cones this year!

Pros: Delicious chocolate flavour.

Cons: Vanilla was kind of bland, Not very refreshing.

Next level 🍦

I dream about this ice cream - need I say more? 🍦🤍

We found Dappa in the pouring rain of VCO 2023 and it was still the most incredible experience. 🙌🏻✨

Pros: AMAZING, Delicious, Reasonably priced

Cons: I can’t find it on every street corner 😭

Dáppa

Vegan ice cream stand selling soft serve made from cashews and almonds. Available with various toppings and in cups and cones. Ice cream was delicious, really smooth and creamy. A bit on the pricey side but well worth a treat.

Outstanding!

These guys have nailed creamy soft serve. It was generously topped - the strawberry cheesecake with biscoff crumble was slightly more faithful than the peanut butter cup which was peanutty rather than peanut buttery but still delish - yummy chocolate sauce.

Pros: Speedy service (quicker than scooping 😂)

Best vegan soft serve

I love this icecream! It’s so creamy and the best soft serve I’ve tried. Also love the toppings - the peanut butter cup one is delicious.

Best vegan soft serve 🍦

The best vegan soft serve I’ve tried - we had Dappa at their stand at Vegan Life Live 2022. We got the Disco Biscuit (ice cream with various Biscoff toppings) in a cone. It was so delicious – and generous amount of toppings too!

All vegan!

Everything is vegan!

You only have 3 options but they all look super yummy! I took peanut butter, chocolat and peanut on top 🤤 and for an extra you can add a vegan Bueno!

It cans seem a little bit expensive (6£ if I remember well) but the ice-cream is huge. Totally worth it!

Also, how cool is this black cone? 🖤

Best soft serve ever

I've had dappa so many times now, if they are at any event of festival its enough to make me attend. I always missed soft serve and Dappa absolutely smash it. So many toppings too!

Pros: Tasty, Variety of toppings

Delicious ice cream!

We tried Dappa at their stand at Vegan Life Live 2022. They had a range of options including 4 'combo' options and my fiancé & I both went for the Disco Biscuit (basically ice cream with a bunch of Biscoff-based toppings) in a cone. It was excellent – the ice cream was delicious with a good amount of toppings and the cone was really tasty too!

Pros: Delicious, Biscoff toppings!

Tried DAPPA at Vegan Camp Out. It was well worth the queue! Amazing. Would happily eat it over and over again.

Great soft-serve, probably best to catch them at a market or event

Came out of my way for this after researching online as I love vegan soft serve (especially cashew-based) yet only rarely find it. No issues whatsoever with the ice cream itself, just couldn’t be better— real cashew soft serve is just different and I think, better than any other vegan ice cream!

The downsides— this is Dappa’s current permanent location as far as I can tell, it’s hard to find, tucked away in a small sort of food truck area around Brick Lane. You can get the plain/vanilla flavour here as well as a very limited range of toppings (just chocolate flakes when I was there) and a couple of sauces. I can see from their Instagram and advertising they mainly cater to events, set-up at vegan markets, and some restaurants seem to offer their ice cream too, though it’s all a bit unclear.

I can see, though, that they offer at least a couple more flavours and extra, more exciting toppings and sauces at these other venues. Unless you’re really keen just to try the soft-serve as I was and prepared to go out of your way to sit and eat it on a bench, I’d advise waiting til they’re at an event or cafe or something, as it seems like that would be a better experience.

Really can’t fault the ice cream at all though, even in an increasingly crowded vegan market in London it’s a truly unique and special product! Would love to see them get set up with a better permanent location soon with a proper toppings bar, they certainly deserve that.

Pros: Delicious cashew soft serve , unique and special , Decent reasonable price for a cup or cone

Cons: Hard to find (in this location), limited toppings and sauces, 1 flavour only, a truck with some benches, not best experience

Nice treat on a sunny day

It was a weirdly warm, sunny London day, so stumbling across Dappa was a great break from wandering around Shoreditch. I tried the 'What the Fudge' combo which was kind of like a classic sundae but with popcorn as well. The hot fudge was amazing! The ice cream itself was good and had a good texture. The taste was also good. Vanilla is not my favorite so I would love for them to expand to a least one other flavor personally, but I still really enjoyed it!
