Fruity Cottage Cheese Cups

Gevina's 'Fruittage' Products Blend Fruit with Whipped Cheese

— November 25, 2016 — Lifestyle
Gevina Farms' 'Fruittage' cottage cheese cups offer a sweet take on the traditional dairy snack. Small-curd cottage cheese is blended with natural and artificial ingredients to form flavors like Canadian Maple, Peach, Strawberry and Pineapple Light.

As well as being intriguing for their sweet flavors, the "whipped cheese" snacks also feature noteworthy packaging. Each single-serve five-ounce cup comes with a small fold-out spoon on top that makes it easy to grab a pot of the fruity cheese snack and instantly enjoy it on the go.

As the dairy industry faces increased pressure to innovate—especially to differentiate itself from producers of non-dairy plant-based protein products—manufacturers are releasing a number of inventive cottage cheese products. Some of these include unexpected hybrids that blend yogurt, salsa and even savory vegetables with cottage cheese.
Trend Themes
1. Hybrid Cottage Cheese Products - The trend of blending cottage cheese with unexpected ingredients like fruit, yogurt, salsa, or vegetables presents opportunities for creative cottage cheese manufacturers.
2. Convenient On-the-go Packaging - The innovative single-serve packaging with a fold-out spoon on top provides a disruptive opportunity for dairy snack manufacturers to cater to busy, on-the-go consumers.
3. Flavored Cottage Cheese - The introduction of unique and sweet flavors to cottage cheese, like Canadian Maple, Peach, Strawberry, and Pineapple Light, opens up new possibilities for flavor-driven dairy products.
Industry Implications
1. Dairy Snack Manufacturers - Dairy snack companies can explore hybrid cottage cheese products and flavored options to expand their product offerings and attract a broader consumer base.
2. Packaging Manufacturers - Packaging manufacturers can develop innovative and convenient packaging solutions to meet the growing demand for on-the-go dairy snacks like the fold-out spoon cup.
3. Food and Beverage Retail - The introduction of unique flavored cottage cheese products creates opportunities for food and beverage retailers to offer a wider range of dairy snacks and appeal to health-conscious consumers.
