SINGAPORE, Nov. 9, 2021 / PRNewswire / – Sophie’s BioNutrients, a next-generation sustainable urban food production technology company, in collaboration with Ingredion Idea Labs® innovation center of Singapore, collaborated to produce their first microalgae-based cheese, made from Sophie’s BioNutrients dairy-free microalgae milk.

This cheese innovation features an umami, tangy taste profile, mimicking natural cheddar cheese, and can be sliced ​​for a cheese board, melted in toast, nested in a sandwich, or spread on crackers or bread as a rich, gooey spread.

Anything Dairy Can Do, Microalgae Can Make Cheddar

Sophie’s BioNutrients team worked with Ingredion’s team of technical experts to create the vegan cheese. Developed from microalgae protein flour, it is available in two types of products: a semi-hard cheese without microalgae and a cheese spread without dairy products.

A one-ounce serving of semi-hard microalgae cheese provides double the daily intake of B12. It is also sustainably harvested – no cows were harmed in the process – and has a low carbon footprint.

“Microalgae are one of the most nutrient-dense and ductile resources on the planet. Today we showed another side of the limitless possibilities this superfood can offer: a dairy-free and lactose-free cheese alternative that, thanks to microalgae, offers a better protein content than most dairy-free alternatives available. . We are incredibly excited about this development in allergen-free foods and the prospect of more inclusive meals, ”said Eugene Wang, co-founder and CEO of Sophie’s BioNutrients.

Aï Tsing Tan, Director of Innovation at Ingredion also said, “As we innovate to meet the changing needs of consumers, it is essential to focus on the important attributes to create a product preferred by consumers. Our approach to dairy-free cheese is to develop it as closely as possible to cheese in terms of flavor and texture. Consumers can enjoy a delicious, recognizable and desirable vegan cheese tasting experience. “

Working to create a more sustainable food future

This latest innovation comes against the backdrop of strong consumer demand for plant-based dairy alternatives around the world. The increased awareness of lactose intolerance conditions has been a key factor in driving the market.

According to the international market research firm Research and Markets, the global vegan cheese market was valued at US $ 1.2 billion in 2019 and should reach 4.42 billion US dollars by 2027, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.5% from 2021 to 2027.

Sophie’s bionutrients produce an unaltered, neutral-colored microalgae flour naturally grown from single-celled microalgae and harvested in three days in a protected environment.

The microalgae strains used by Sophie’s BioNutrients are approved by the United States GRAS and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) for use as a food ingredient or supplement.
