For the fall season, Muuna launched a limited-edition Pumpkin & Spice flavor for its cottage cheese, which will help to satisfy the ever-growing demand for pumpkin spice products and celebrate the upcoming National Pumpkin Day.
In the same way that many single-serve yogurt snacks are packed with fruit on the bottom, Muuna offers a range of reinvented cottage cheese cups that are enhanced with flavors like Raspberry, Black Cherry, Peach and more. The all-new Pumpkin & Spice flavor is made up of protein-rich cottage cheese plus real pumpkin puree and pumpkin spice seasoning.
While many consumers reach for a spiced pumpkin latte to get their fix of fall flavors, Muuna notes that its "one medium pumpkin spice latte averages approximately 50 grams of sugar and little to no protein whereas a 5.3-ounce snack cup of Muuna's new Pumpkin & Spice flavor has only eight grams of sugar plus a whopping 17 grams of protein and even contains probiotics and potassium."
