Ice cream trends 2025

Why vegan natural ice cream is now the new premium

Sugar-free, plant-based, uncompromisingly good: artisan natural ice cream is setting new standards in the dessert world. Why varieties such as “Safrancisco” and “Trüffelsau” are now also exciting for the food service industry – and what ice cream will have to achieve in the future.

Alex Kühn, founder and mastermind behind Goldhelm Schokolade from Erfurt, is not only shaking up the dessert world with chocolate in 2025, but also with his own natural ice cream. The new “Only 3” line stands for plant-based and sugar-free premium ice cream – with a clear motto: allergy-free, full of flavor and character.

Excellence as an attitude
