When a customer asks for a vegan-friendly dessert option, what is the recommended response?

Answer: (A)

When a customer asks for a vegan-friendly dessert, the best approach is to propose plant-based drinks and vegan toppings, then verify each ingredient to ensure it’s vegan and offer suitable substitutes if needed. This shows you respect their dietary needs and keeps the dessert truly vegan, avoiding assumptions or inaccurate recommendations. It also sidesteps disappointments that come from saying there are no vegan options or from guessing that toppings are vegan without checking.
