Curious? Ask Koko

We're passionate about crafting treats that are good for the planet and delicious for every dog! Plant-based treats have a lighter environmental impact, and they can be a healthy option for all pups, especially those with sensitivities or allergies. We believe in creating a more compassionate world for all living beings, and that includes happy, healthy dogs with wagging tails!

This is a very important question, as many dogs are lactose intolerant!  

The answer is a resounding NO! None of our Koko's Kitchen treats contain any dairy or lactose ingredients. We are 100% plant-based, meaning we use only ingredients derived from plants like fruits, vegetables, and grains.

We understand that dairy can be a common allergen for dogs, causing digestive upset and other issues. That's why we've carefully crafted our recipes to be free from dairy and other common allergens, making them a safe and healthy choice for all pups, even those with sensitivities.  

You can rest assured that your furry friend can enjoy Koko's Kitchen treats without any worries about dairy-related tummy troubles.

That's a great question! While our treats have a similar texture and taste to ice cream, we call them "frozen treats" for a couple of important reasons:

• Ingredient Differences: Traditional ice cream is typically made with cow's milk and cream, which can be difficult for some dogs to digest. Our frozen treats are crafted with dog-friendly ingredients, like yogurt, fruits, and vegetables, ensuring they're both delicious and easy on canine tummies.  

• Regulatory Clarity: The term "ice cream" is regulated by the FDA and has specific requirements for ingredients and labeling. By using the term "frozen treats," we provide clarity and transparency about the unique nature of our products, which are specifically formulated for dogs.  

Ultimately, we want to be upfront about what makes our treats special. They're not just "ice cream for dogs" – they're carefully crafted frozen treats designed to provide a healthy and delicious way to cool down and indulge your furry friend!

At Koko's Kitchen, we carefully select every ingredient in our treats with these key factors in mind:

1. Wholesome Ingredients: We prioritize natural, plant-based ingredients that provide essential nutrients for dogs. We look for ingredients rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber to support overall health and well-being.

2. Taste and Enjoyment: We know that even the healthiest treat is no good if your dog won't eat it! That's why we conduct thorough taste tests (with ethical considerations, of course!) to ensure our treats are delicious and appealing to a variety of canine palates.

3. Digestibility: We choose ingredients that are easy for dogs to digest, even those with sensitive stomachs. We focus on whole foods and avoid artificial additives, fillers, and common allergens that can cause digestive upset.

4. Functional Benefits: We consider specific health needs that dogs might have. For example, we might include ingredients known to support healthy skin and coats, aid in weight management, or promote dental health.

5.  Sustainability: We are committed to using sustainably sourced ingredients that have a minimal impact on the environment. This includes choosing plant-based options and supporting suppliers who prioritize eco-friendly practices.

Ultimately, we want to create treats that are good for your dog, good for the planet, and contribute to a more compassionate world. We believe that happy, healthy dogs start with wholesome, thoughtfully crafted treats!

Koko's Kitchen treats are proudly made in the USA. We believe in supporting local businesses and ensuring the highest quality standards. Our production facility is located in Chicago, IL.

At Koko's Kitchen, we're proud of our handcrafted approach! We make our frozen treats in small batches with a focus on quality and care. Here's how our dedication to handcrafting shines through in every step:

1.  Wholesome Ingredients, Hand-Selected: We begin by carefully sourcing the finest plant-based ingredients – fruits, vegetables, and other wholesome goodies – ensuring they're packed with nutrients and free from anything artificial.

2.  Small-Batch Blending: Each small batch is blended with precision, allowing us to closely monitor consistency and quality. This hands-on approach ensures every container meets our high standards.

3.  Hand-Packed with Joy: Once our frozen treats reach the perfect consistency, they're hand-packed into our eco-conscious containers. This ensures the ideal texture in every bite and allows us to maintain strict quality control.

4.  Frozen to Perfection: Our end product is then carefully frozen to achieve the perfect creamy texture.

From ingredient selection to the final packaging, our hands-on approach allows us to maintain the highest standards of quality and care. We believe that this dedication to small-batch, handcrafted goodness shines through in every lick of a Koko's Kitchen frozen treat.

Absolutely! Your veterinarian is an essential member of your pet's health team. We recommend consulting with your vet before introducing any new treats or dietary changes to ensure they align with your pet's specific health needs and dietary restrictions. Your vet can provide personalized advice to keep your furry friend happy and healthy. Always prioritize professional guidance when it comes to your pet's nutrition and well-being.

Every bag of Koko's Kitchen premium dog treats helps us give back to our community.
