Saputo Dairy USA is launching a new range of plant-based, vegan-certified and dairy-free cheeses to add to its Vitalite portfolio.
Available in six varieties, the line consists of Plant-Based Mozzarella Style Slices; Plant-Based Mozzarella Style Shreds; Plant-Based Cheddar Style Slices; Plant-Based Cheddar Style Shreds; Plant-Based Grated Parmesan Style; and a Plant-Based Creamy Original Spread.
Vitalite’s products are made using no genetically modified ingredients and are vegan- and kosher-certified, gluten-free and, except for the Creamy Original Spread, soy-free.
Nikki Trzeciak, Saputo executive chef and senior manager of culinary and sensory, said: “People following a plant-based or flexitarian diet have limited options in the grocery store and many of those options lack appeal. The idea for Vitalite came out of trying to solve that. We want home cooks to feel liberated in the kitchen and inspired to create traditional foods they have an emotional connection to without compromise.”
The range will be rolled out across US retailers nationwide this year.
