Marble Slab Creamery: What’s Vegetarian Editorial Review

Marble Slab Creamery is about as safe as it gets if you’re vegetarian. Every ice cream flavor, frozen yogurt, and sorbet on the menu is meat-free, and the sorbets are vegan too, since the shop’s whole product is ice cream mixed to order on a frozen slab.

What to order at Marble Slab Creamery

Any of the ice cream flavors, Sweet Cream, Butter Pecan, Cheesecake, Cinnamon, or Salted Caramel, are vegetarian. For vegan options, order the sorbet, in flavors like Sweet Orange and Watermelon, or the smoothies in Raspberry, Strawberry, or Strawberry Banana. Fruit and nut mix-ins are vegan too, so you can build a full bowl or cone without touching dairy at all if you choose the right base. The case rotates through more than 20 small-batch ice cream flavors, so you’ll have plenty of vegetarian choices no matter which location you visit.

What to watch out for

The ice cream flavors, frozen yogurt, and the Golden Malted cone all contain dairy and often egg, so none of those are vegan even though they’re vegetarian. Ice cream cakes and pizzas have egg baked into the cake layer. Candy and cookie mix-ins like M&M’s, Butterfinger, Oreos, and cookie dough are vegetarian but not vegan, since they’re dairy-based. Gummy bears and mini marshmallow mix-ins may contain gelatin, so check before adding either one if you’re strict about vegetarian ingredients.
