This is the year for fun projects! Seriously, you can’t have too many options for at-home activities right now. And these holiday-themed, dairy-free baking kits combine entertainment with a sweet reward. Some are purposely dairy-free, and even vegan and allergy-friendly, but many are “accidentally dairy-free.” Nevertheless, we’re not complaining about their milk and butter oversight.
50 Dairy-Free Baking Kits to Make the Holiday Season Sweeter
All of the non-dairy products mentioned below are dairy-free by ingredients. Ingredients are subject to change at any time, so always read the label! And as always, contact the manufacturer to discuss their production processes if a severe food allergy is a concern for you. There is always some degree of cross-contamination risk, and allergen labels (or lack of) should not be relied on exclusively. We cannot evaluate if a product is safe for your needs. Some of the mixes do call for dairy ingredients, but we’ve suggested dairy-free alternatives for preparation.
