Plant-based dairy pioneer Daiya Foods has broadened its offering with the introduction of ‘chick’n’ shreds, which feature as a topping on a new pizza and flatbread.
The Canadian company’s latest innovation is made from peas, oats and rice and is suitable for consumers with any of the eight most common food allergies.
In addition to the shreds, Daiya’s new BBQ Plant-Based Chick’n Style Thin Crust Pizza features a gluten-free crust, smoky BBQ sauce, ‘fire-roasted’ tomatoes and red onions, and the brand’s dairy-free mozzarella.
Meanwhile, the Plant-Based Chick’n, Smoked Bac’n & Ranch Style Flatbread combines the topping with smoked bacon-style bits, ranch sauce and mozzarella shreds, on a crispy flatbread-style gluten-free crust.
“Innovation is at the core of what we do at Daiya,” said chief marketing officer, Melanie Domer. “Our team has been incredibly imaginative in figuring out a way to offer a plant-based chicken pizza, without the allergens you would normally find in such a product. We’re confident that these new flavours of our pizza and flatbread will truly delight frozen pizza buyers.”
The new products are available now at Walmart stores.
