Some of my posts here on gfe are more of the “short and sweet” variety than others and such is definitely the case with this review of a fairly new product, So Delicious Dairy-Free CocoWhip, a coconut whipped topping. I heard about this product long before I actually got to try it. I mean dairy-free, ready-made whipped cream is sure to get lots of attention, right? Then one day one of those magical coolers from So Delicious was delivered to my door.
Inside we found So Delicious CocoWhip, So Delicious CocoWhip Light, several So Delicious dairy-free beverages—Cashew Milk (Unsweetened, Vanilla) and Coconut Milk (Unsweetened, Original, Chocolate, and Vanilla), and two new flavors of So Delicious Coconut Milk Frozen Desserts—Simply Strawberry and Oregon Mixed Berry. What a fabulous treasure chest!
First, we tried their new frozen desserts. Admittedly, I’m not a big berry lover, but Mr. GFE is. For the Oregon Mixed Berry flavor, So Delicious says: “We take Oregon Marionberry and Oregon Red Raspberry and swirl them into Organic coconut milk to make this berry lovers’ delight.” Mr. GFE eagerly enjoyed this flavor. He said it was “thick and creamy” and “very berryful, very good!” When I asked him about the coconut flavor, he said that he was not particularly conscious of any coconut flavor. Note that we both are major coconut lovers though.
The Simply Strawberry is: “Organic Strawberries blended simply and sweetly into Organic coconut milk to create our new Simply Strawberry. Pretty in pink and tasty to the tongue.” Because I’m not a berry fanatic like Mr. GFE or some of you, I made a chocolate strawberry milkshake with this flavor—simply adding some cacao powder and So Delicious Coconut Milk Beverage to get the mixture to shake consistency. It was so good!
We enjoyed the Cashew Milk Beverages and Coconut Milk Beverages in a variety of ways—sipping them, pouring them over cereal, and turning them into fruit smoothies, green smoothies, dairy-free milkshakes, and hot cocoa. All worked great!
Now About That So Delicious CocoWhip …
It’s been years since I ate Cool Whip on a regular basis. Well, not even that regular. I usually bought it to top holiday treats. I actually stopped using it completely when I learned more about its ingredients several years back.
While I’ve occasionally been enjoying homemade coconut whipped cream, I felt like I was overdue for a ready-made option that tasted just as good as Cool Whip, but was healthier.
I had a bunch of gluten-free friends over for dinner in late October and made my first Crustless Pumpkin Pie of the season. Most of these friends are also dairy free, so I finally pulled out the CocoWhip Original flavor for us to try. My friends—even those who eat dairy—were thrilled to sample CocoWhip on their slice of pumpkin pie! The verdict? We all loved it! So Delicious CocoWhip delivers as a product that can both take the place of other ready-made whipped toppings and is healthier.
CoCo Whip is creamy and delicious and perfectly paired with pumpkin pie. I was surprised that even the original version “felt” much lighter than other whipped topping. No heavy feeling after eating!
For Thanksgiving, I pulled out the CocoWhip Light for us to sample. I’m not one who usually seeks out lighter versions because often “light” means more fake ingredients. However, that’s not the case with CocoWhip Light. You can see the ingredients below, and compare them to the ingredients in the original version.
We used CocoWhip Light to top yet another Crustless Pumpkin Pie plus a Crustless Coconut Pie and Luxurious Pecan Pie. (Look for the recipe for that last one soon.) Again, the CocoWhip was wonderful! I didn’t taste any difference at all with the Light version, although I did find it didn’t hold its shape as well as the original. But taste and texture were far more important to me.
Do you want to try CocoWhip or any other So Delicious Dairy-Free products? Well, courtesy of So Delicious, FIVE SIX gfe readers will each win THREE So Delicious Dairy-Free Coupons for a free product. The winners can use them to get CocoWhip and two other products at no charge! The giveaway ends Sunday, December 6, at midnight Eastern. Enter via Rafflecopter below.

I live the simple vanilla flavor of So Delicious Coconut Milk “ice cream” and am excited yo know about these new treats! I might not even feel guilty eating this version of cool whip!
Patricia A. Pierce says
Charlotte, so would I! Where do I buy it!? I use coconut milk and coconut sugar( good for diabetic baking).
Can’t wait to try it!
Best wishes, Patti
Patricia A. Pierce says
Hi Jen,
I’ve been using the packaged dry Dream Whip with coconut milk. Works well, I usually use a 1/2 t. of psyllium husk or licithin powder to make it stiffer.
Can’t wait to try CoCo Whip for my Christmas goodies!
Patti
Siobhan.Phoenix says
You know I love the coco whip frozen! It’s like ice cream! And as it melts it’s a soft consistency. But you eat it fast so it hardly melts! They really need to make this forever and NEVER discontinue it!
Shirley Braden says
Hi Siobhan–Welcome to gfe! 🙂 As this is a pretty old post, I don’t think that Jen is still reading the comments but I appreciate you sharing this tasty tip with everyone else who might still be reading or who comes across this post! Coco Whip is definitely delicious and I’m sure it would be a wonderful frozen treat. 😉

Charlotte Moore says
WOW!! I have never heard of this. I would love to try this Coco Whip Light.
Brandae says
Thanks for posting the ingredient list with your review. That is most helpful! My boys always want the potluck type desserts that are usually made with Cool Whip, and I’d love to be able to make them a healthier version of one with the Coco Whip. Really neat product idea!
Marsha A. says
I would love to try the CocoWhip both the regular and the light. I agree that I dont like the ingredients in cool whip and this sounds like a great alternative. Thanks for the chance to win.
Patricia A. Pierce says
Marsha,
You have a good reason not to use the Cool Whip–it uses a type of powdered plastic!
Best wishes, Patti
J'Marinde says
I go through at least 6 pints of So Delici9ous Unsweetened Yogurt every month. I use it to make a variety of sauces, including mixing it with red pepper hummus to make my own tartar sauce or to dip my fresh veggies in, in baking and mixed with allergen free mayo for making ‘sour cream.’
In the morning I use it to take a handful of meds that are too small for me to swallow without some kind of carrier and I often just eat a small serving for pure pleasure. It is refreshing and so yummy! I would love to try the whipped toppings. They sound delightful!
Patricia A. Pierce says
Hi!
I will definitely have to try the yogurt! Sounds delish!
Best wishes, Patti
Alicia says
Wow! I had no idea a coconut cool whip exisited! I can’t wait to try it on pie!
katie chalmers says
Our favorite is the Coco Whip and we have been using it (with much delight) on pancakes and pumpkin pie since my daughter had to recently go dairy free. I would love to try some of the frozen products. Thanks!
Lisa says
So Delicious is continuing to make life easier!! Every one of their new products looks so delicious. 😉
Lisa says
I should add that our favorite So Delicious product is their salted caramel cluster cashew ice cream. The greatest stuff ever.
Patricia A. Pierce says
Lisa!
That sounds yummy! Where can I buy that?
Best wishes, Patti
Lisa says
I but it in the freezer section of our grocery stores. I think a lot of places are starting to carry them now.
Lisa says
Yay!! So excited to try some Coco Whip! Thank you so much, Shirley!
Shirley says
Lisa–You are welcome. I think you are going to LOVE CocoWhip! 🙂 Enjoy!
Shirley
Bev says
When will this be out. I looked for an alternative this thanksgiving. Excited to try it.
Louise says
Eager to try So Delicious products.
S. Harris says
Wow! I would love to try the Coco Whip! I’ve never tried any of the other so-delicious products, other than their milks (which are by far my favorite non-dairy milks!). Thanks!
Sherri says
Hi Shirley!
Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I would love to try the So Delicious coconut whipped topping! I wish they were making it with coconut sugar but since it has so little sugar cane in it, I would try it.
Enjoy this month of December and have a Merry Christmas!
Sherri
Amanda Miller says
I just recently saw this in my Publix!! I was too nervous to splurge until I heard a good review. Well I am sold! I can’t wait to pick one up and use it this holiday season.
Also I am in LOVE with their chocolate mint drink that is only out during the holidays. It tastes just like a grasshopper cookie… I have already purchased and gone through four bottles!
Diana R. says
My favorite product is So delicious Coconut Mint Chip ice cream. I have not seen the Cocowhip in my store, but I would love to try it and will keep and eye out for it.
Karyn Mericle says
I can’t wait to try the CocoWhip!!! My daughter has a dairy allergy and absolutely loves the So Delicious frozen desserts.
Louise G says
I felt just a little left out at Thanksgiving as I didn’t have any coconut cream to make whipped up. This would have been perfect.
Thank you for posting. LG
Michelle P says
All the products you reviewed sound great. I would love to try the CocoWhip in my one jello recipe.
Sheryll Ziemer says
Can’t wait to try more of their products. So far have only tried the frozen desserts, and loved them. Thanks for the ingredients list!

joan says
I can hardly wait to try the Coco Whip! I’ll look for it in my store.
Faith Epp says
I’m so excited to see this. This would beat having to make my own by waiting for the canned coconut cream to set up, then whip it. Thank you for sharing this.
Paula Decaria says
How do I choose a favorite So Delicious product? I LOVE their ice creams, yogurts, and milk. I have been wanting so badly to try the cocowhip, but haven’t seen it in my town yet.
Erin R. says
I LOVE that Coco Whip!! So yummy with GF/DF pumpkin pie!
LisaB says
I would love to try the whipped topping! I skipped whipped topping this holiday because there aren’t any good alternatives.
I’m also excited to try the strawberry ice cream. Even though it’s probably not going to blow my socks off like their cashew milk salted caramel ice cream. **swoon**
julie says
This looks delicious!
Charity says
I love the frozen coconut milk desserts. Haven’t seen the Coco Whip, yet. Would have been great to have on Thanksgiving day with all of my gluten free pies!
Stephanie says
I bought a container and used it on your crustless sweet potato pie! So yum!! 🙂
Linda C says
I had the CocoWhip for the first time at Thanksgiving. I wanted to try just a small taste before digging into my GF apple pie topped with it. When I tasted this, I immediately let out this satisfied “ummmmmmmm” sound, then said, “O. M. G.! This is SOOOOO GOOD!!!” My husband said, “I’ll have what she’s having!!”
Janis S says
I would try the coco whip. I can have dairy but won’t do cool whip due to all the bad ingredients
Alisa Fleming says
That product is amazing, isn’t it?! On the ice creams – I’m actually not a berry ice cream fan either (my husband is though like yours!), but these ones won me over for some reason. Still not my first flavor choices, but pretty darn good.
Robin Moss says
I have tried their ice cream (and loveit!)-will now try the whip cream!
Ina says
I love the Coco whip!! I am dairy and gluten free and do appreciate ready made too, for those times when I am traveling, but with the quality of this product, I use it at home now too. The taste and texture rate high and it “sits well”. Thanks for promoting this great product!!
Sheila Hurt says
I’ve never tried it, but I am looking forward to using it in my homemade ice cream recipes.
September says
The new Coco Whip is absolutely delicious!!! I went through a tub on Thanksgiving and have another tub open now. It was fabulous on pies and also delicious in hot cocoa!!! YUM!!!
DJ says
I love the chocolate coconut milk, but would love to try this cocowhip.
Carole Hegg says

I would most like to try the coco whip. Like you, I have made my own, but it would be so nice to have something ready made! (Plus, mine doesn’t always turn out so great!)
Theresa Meehan Currie says
Our family loves the coconut milk, I found the ice cream yesterday and can’t wait to try it. My son has had milk allergies since he was a baby. I talked him in to trying their coconut milk and he can now enjoy cereal for breakfast( he’s in his 30’s now). I can’t wait for him to finally be able to enjoy ice cream and now whipped cream. Some of our stores stopped carrying the So Delicious Brands, but it’s worth going to different stores so we can keep enjoying it!!!
Flordeluz Flores says
My favorito is the canilla coconut milk. Also I Love the vanilla ice crean.
Ange Alex says

I would love the Simply Strawberry – I can see that being a huge hit with kiddos. Plus the coco whip – they LOVE whipped cream, but can’t because of all the icky ingredients.
