History of International Delight
International Delight was launched in the 1980s as the first flavored, dairy-free liquid creamer. Initially, it was offered in three flavors and only in single-serve containers. Over time, the brand expanded its line to include more than 20 options, including fat-free and sugar-free versions.
These products are available in various sizes, including single-serve, pints, quarts, 1.5 quarts, and half-gallons, and can be found in supermarkets, convenience stores, large retailers, and food service establishments nationwide. In 2013, the brand added its popular Iced Coffee to its product lineup.
