In its limited-edition holiday feast kits, meatless brand Tofurky included a plant-based espresso cheesecake and positive feedback from customers inspired the creation of an all-new sub-brand called Moocho, which creates sweet vegan cheesecakes to complement Tofurky's savory, protein-rich meat alternatives. The plant-based, non-GMO cheesecakes are being introduced to consumers in flavors like Triple Berry Swirl, New York Style Vanilla and Chocolate Fudge, which will be available for individual purchase for the first time.
Under this new dessert brand, Tofurky has the potential to launch a range of other non-dairy products that won't be confused with the core items in its protein-powered range.
Whether or not one is interested in trying meat-free products, plant-based desserts are appealing to those who are looking to avoid certain ingredients and treat themselves to a better-for-you indulgence.
