cheese, answered.

What is your cheese made from?

Most of it is cultured almond cheese: a plant-based almond base that we culture and age the slow way for real, tangy flavour, then finish by flavour, from cranberry & pistachio to chilli garlic and peppercorn. A few are made from cashews instead (mozzarella pearls, jalapeño cream cheese, pesto burrata); each product’s ingredients are on its page. Never any dairy.

Is everything dairy-free and vegan?

Yes, completely. Every single thing we make is plant-based, with no dairy at all. Our milks, yogurts and most of our cheeses start from almonds; the mozzarella pearls, jalapeño cream cheese and pesto burrata use cashews. Each product lists its ingredients.

Do you have Jain-friendly products?

Yes, some of our range is Jain-friendly, and it’s marked on the product page where it applies, the natural feta among them. If you follow specific rules, message us and we’ll confirm ingredient by ingredient.

How much protein is in your products?

Most product pages on this site carry a per-serving nutrition table from our lab data, so you can check the exact figure before you buy. The vegan parmesan is our highest at 32.3 g per 100 g, and the cacao almond milk leads the drinks at 7 g per 100 ml.

How should I store it?

Keep everything refrigerated. Because there are no preservatives, our food is at its best fresh, so enjoy it soon after it arrives.
