Naturally Ripened Plant-Based Cheeses

Organic Garage’s Future of Cheese is a Brie Alternative

— December 3, 2021 — Lifestyle
Organic Garage’s Future of Cheese is all-natural, organic, non-GMO and naturally opened, and it reminds of brie thanks to a traditional aging process. The product is described as a "version of a traditional delicate brie, complete with a ripened rind, mild flavor and velvety smooth texture.”

Traditional cheese-making techniques and proper climate-controlled aging rooms were key parts of developing the all-natural ripened plant-based brie, which is produced in a humidity-controlled environment for 21 days. The plant-based brie is made with just five simple ingredients and no fillers, gums or starches, which makes it one of the cleanest of its kind on the market. The cheese alternative is packaged in a biodegradable container that's optimized to continue the ripening process and mature the cheese throughout its shelf lifespan.
Trend Themes
1. Naturally Aged Plant-based Cheese - The trend of creating plant-based cheese that uses traditional cheese-making techniques, ripening methods, and ingredients with no fillers or starches are disrupting the dairy industry.
2. Biodegradable Packaging for Cheese - The trend of using biodegradable packaging that continues to age and mature plant-based cheese offers an opportunity to break away from traditional packaging methods and promote sustainability.
3. Small-batch Process for Cheese Production - The trend of producing plant-based cheese in small batches in humidity-controlled rooms is disrupting conventional cheese production methods and offers an opportunity to innovate new recipes and flavors.
Industry Implications
1. Plant-based Food Industry - The plant-based food industry has an opportunity to disrupt the cheese market with a range of products that use traditional cheese-making techniques and all-natural ingredients.
2. Packaging Industry - The packaging industry has an opportunity to adapt to the growing trend of biodegradable packaging for plant-based cheese products to ensure the preservation of food quality while promoting sustainability.
3. Fine Dining Restaurant Industry - The fine dining restaurant industry has an opportunity to offer innovative dishes using naturally aged and ripened plant-based cheese that caters to the increasing demand for dairy-free and vegan options.
