Lots of new Mums find themselves eliminating dairy and soy from their diet following the birth of their baby due to their baby showing signs and symptoms of Cows Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA). It can be a bit of a minefield finding dairy free alternatives that are tasty or similar to what you're used to. A lovely Mum who has been dairy & soy free for a couple of years has kindly shared with me her list of go-to dairy products :-)
If you are dairy and/or soy free and have any go-to products that you want others to know about or even websites or social media accounts to follow please let me know as I'll keep updating this list!

Biscuits/snacks
Party Rings
Jammy Dodgers
Biscoff Biscuits
the cheaper the biscuits the less likely to have milk , e.g own brand bourbon creams
Sainsbury's jam doughnuts
Aldi/Asda own brand jaffa cakes
Sweet & Salted popcorn (great for a sweet treat if you can't find something directly hitting the spot)
Soreen
Mr Kipling Apple & Blackbury Pies
Tuc biscuits
Ritz crackers
Usually gingerbread men
Chocolate
Lindt vegan chocolate
anything over 75% cocoa has traces of milk
NOMO
Eat Raw
Buttermilks
Pizza
Zizzi jack fruit pizza
Chicago town stuff crust pizza
Reduced fat garlic breadds are usually safe
Dairy
Catherdral City Plant Based cheese. ( similar to mature cheese)
Violife cheese ( similar to mild cheddar)
Sheese mozzarella and spreadable cheese ( usually found at Waitrose or health food shop)
Most alternative milks are pretty good. (Elle says Califa Farms Oat Milk is the best!!)
Flora butter in the green and light blue tub are dairy free
Elmlea plant based double cream ( whips up like normal double cream)
Stork baking block (not tub)
Just Rol pastry
Other

Things to be cautious about
Crisps - some salt and vinegar have milk powder in .
Squeezable sauce like mayo - contains cream powder to make easier to squeeze out the bottle
KFC uses buttermilk in batter so anything vegan or grilled is okay
