Vevan unveils new marinated dairy-free cheeses

Schuman Cheese’s Vevan Foods division is expanding its portfolio of plant-based cheeses with a new marinated option for entertaining.

Marinated Mozza-Bites are bite-size cubes of dairy-free cheese marinated in an ‘aromatic’ blend of herbed oil and spices.

The new Vevan offering can be enjoyed as part of a charcuterie board, salad, skewer or pasta dish, as well as with crackers or as a snack.

Two varieties are available: Marinated Mozza-Bites, featuring dairy-free Mozza cubes marinated in a savoury, fragrant blend of Italian herbs and oil; and Marinated Mozza-Bites Antipasti, offering Mozza cubes marinated with Kalamata olives, pepperoncini peppers and pearl peppers in a herbed oil blend.

“Over the last few years, the demand for vegan options has accelerated and we’re proud to expand our dairy-free cheese options to provide more variety to consumers for their entertaining needs,” said Keith Schuman, business unit lead for Vevan Foods.

“Marinated Mozza-Bites are the latest example of how we’re branching out and continually exploring new ways to be more inclusive of plant-based and flexitarian eaters, without sacrificing on taste and texture.”

Packaged in 8.5oz cups, Marinated Mozza-Bites will be available at select retailers nationwide, including Sprouts Farmers Market.
