Answer

Absolutely! Many Thai desserts are naturally gluten-free, such as mango sticky rice and coconut pudding, which are popular and widely available.

• If you're looking for vegan options, ask vendors about desserts made without eggs or dairy; many traditional recipes use coconut milk.

• It's always a good idea to inquire directly with the vendor about ingredients, as many are happy to customize or suggest alternatives suited to your needs.

Practical Chiang Mai planning note: Choose by location, dietary needs, hygiene, atmosphere and the time you plan to visit rather than relying on a single "best" list. Menus, opening days and stall locations change, especially at markets and seasonal venues.
