It might seem like a paradox, but plant-based dairy products that are healthy and offer pure indulgence are moving up the list of consumer priorities. Research shows that there’s a growing demand for plant-based alternatives to yogurts, ice creams and desserts that are not just healthy but indulgent too.

Linda Eitelberger, Product Manager at our partner, Planeteers, affirmed this, adding:

“We can only confirm it, more and more customers want products that focus more on enjoyment, in addition to health aspects.”

With this rise in requirements, Planteneers have created solutions to help food manufacturers meet consumer demand.

• Plant-Based Pudding: A Delicious Variety with Extra Protein
  Planteneers’ functional system lets manufacturers create a variety of delicious puddings (oat, soy, coconut) in flavours like chocolate and caramel. High-protein versions are also possible thanks to their unique blend, achieving a creamy texture and satisfying indulgence without sacrificing taste.
• Fermented Oat Dessert: Creamy, Smooth, and Delicious
  A new fermented oat dessert system creates a creamy, yogurt-like dessert (11% fat, 10% sugar, 3% protein) using plant protein and works with existing yogurt production equipment.
• Plant-Based Alternatives to Tiramisu and Cheesecake
  A plant-based mascarpone alternative with a rich texture for vegan tiramisu and other creamy desserts paves the way for similar dairy-free versions of cheesecake and quark.
• Soft-Serve Ice Cream, Purely Plant-Based
  You too can join the soft-serve ice cream revival with Planteneers’ new plant-based mix. It delivers a creamy texture, smooth scooping, and delicious flavours for both soft-serve and classic ice cream applications.
