With the demand for non-dairy milk options increasing, [Nestlé](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/non-dairy-coffee-enhancer) has launched a new line of plant-based instant white coffees -- the [Nescafé](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nescaf-gold-blend-instant-coffee) Gold Coffee Mixes. The line includes coconut, almond, and oat soluble lattes that will be launched exclusively in [Tesco](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alpro-barista-caramel) stores in the UK. Nestlé plans to debut the range in Asia, Latin America, Europe, and Oceania shortly after.

"Our new plant-based vegan latte mixes are the latest in a long list of innovations to bring new and exciting sensory experiences to our loyal Nescafé consumers,” stated Neil Stephens, head of the Nescafé business in the UK and Ireland.

With the demand for vegan coffee options increasing, brands like Nestlé, who reflect consumer needs, will continue to procure customer loyalty and maintain or increase its share of the coffee market.
