Vegan Christmas desserts to buy from UK supermarkets
It’s almost Christmas and I’m sure lots of you will be planning your festive menus for the big day! In my opinion, the most important thing about Christmas dinner is the dessert!
I have been in charge of making the family dessert for the last few years but this year, with some of my favourite recipes being my Yule log, pavlova and sticky toffee pudding. This year though, I thought I’d have a little look to see what the UK supermarket Christmas desserts sections were like and I was pleasantly surprised. There is way more selection than there was a few years ago when I first went vegan, so I wanted to make a list to help any new vegans out too!
Some of the desserts I’ve listed are sold all year round but would be good for Christmas dessert. Others are sold only at Christmas time, with festive flavours and/or decor. I’ve included all of the supermarket snacky desserts that I could find too, because I know there will be plenty of Christmas buffets coming up! For more ideas, check out my accidentally vegan sweets post too.
If you’d like a baking challenge and fancy making something from scratch, make sure to check out my vegan Christmas dessert recipes post for over 35 impressive free-from recipes! Otherwise, keep reading to find out the best Christmas supermarket desserts!
I have divided the list up, listing as many festive treats as I could find from each supermarket. You can use the table of contents below to skip to your preferred supermarket if you like.

Lidl
Lidl don’t provide a list of their ingredients online so it was hard to include them in this list! If you want to check out Lidl’s Christmas desserts to buy, I would recommend checking your local store. Non-vegan ingredients to watch out for would be milk and milk powder, egg and egg powder, gelatine, shellac, carmine, and certain e-numbers.
Iceland
When it comes to vegan Christmas desserts, Iceland had totally slipped my mind but they actually impressed me! The selection I could find was quite small but considering they’re known for frozen food, I think they’re doing pretty well!

- Raspberry and white chocolate loves
- Christmas pudding
