Kite Hill created a unique dairy-free spread that's made with cultured almond milk, offering an alternative to traditional butter that's modeled after European-style butter. The Plant-Based Butter Alternative is also made with premium oils like sunflower and coconut to create a creamy, spreadable formula that's gluten-free, non-GMO, vegan and free from artificial preservatives and flavors. Notably, the ingredients are said to undergo traditional butter-making methods, which yields a spread that tastes, melts and spreads just like dairy butter. Thanks to its versatile form, the dairy-free spread has the potential to be used on everything from bagels and slices of toast to baking recipes.
The Plant-Based Butter Alternative inspired by European-style butter is a new product from Kite Hill, a brand that's known for its vegan cheese and yogurt alternatives.
