Dairy free frosting in stores?

Does one exist? I have a few recipes, it none that I love. And it would be sooo much easier just to buy some, since I have two cakes plus cupcakes that I need to make. TIA

Check Duncan Hines- some of the frostings (and cake mixes) are dairy free. You have to read labels b/c not all are safe.

We gave Duncan Hines Homestyle vanilla to my niece who is milk protein intolerant, and she did fine with it. She hasn't been tested for a true allergy yet, but she can't tolerate even trace amounts of dairy. The chocolate flavor looked safe, too, and I just checked the website, and the yellow cake mix looks like it's okay.

Thanks! I will check them out. My son's allergy is severe though, so I hope they don't say "may contain..."

They don't

Pillsbury frostings are mostly dairy free too.  I really like the ones in the can (kind of like cheese wiz) it lasts longer since I usually bake in small batches when I make cupcakes the shelf life is longer.

We ended up getting Pillsbury Funfetti. No chance of cross contamination at all. The dunkin hines had that D symbol next to the kosher symbol so I don't want to chance anything.
