Violife releases plant-based cheddar
Plant-based cheese brand Violife has just released Cheddarton, its plant-based alternative to cheddar.
Aiming to replicate the mature taste of cheddar, Cheddarton also mirrors the crumbly and creamy texture of cheddar cheese.
It is free from the top 14 allergens (including soya, gluten, lactose, nuts and, of course, dairy), as well as preservatives. It is non-GMO, and fortified with vitamin B12, so you can get one of the benefits that comes with dairy cheese.
As well as these health benefits, the production of Violife’s plant-based cheese has sustainability benefits as well, using two thirds of the land as dairy cheese, as well as producing less than half of the carbon emissions.
"Violife is committed to supercharging the plant-based cheese alternative industry by creating products that deliver on taste, quality, and sustainability credentials," said Jess Millner, Senior Brand Manager at Violife.
"We want to make it easy for consumers to make the switch without sacrificing on taste and texture, so they can go plant-based and stay cheesy! Our new plant-based Cheddarton is the result of extensive research and development - with consumers at the heart of it - aimed at providing cheddar lovers with a delicious alternative that aligns with their values and dietary choices.
“We’re proud to be leaders in this category as we aim to bring more choice and variety to consumers that deliver against their expectations. This is the foundation of our strong and consumer-first innovation pipeline!"
Cheddarton is available now at Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Asda, and Morrison’s from £2.75.
