Almonds are most often used in the making of nut-based yogurt products, but Cashewgurt sets itself apart as a producer of organic non-dairy yogurts made instead with [creamy cashews](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creamy-cashew-dips).

Like many traditional dairy brands, Cashewgurt offers favorite flavors like Lemon, Strawberry and Unsweetened Plain. As well as being free from dairy, these cashew-based yogurts are also made without ingredients like soy and gluten. Four of Cashewgurt's nut-based yogurt products are packaged in convenient single-serve cups for on-the-go eating.

Many health-conscious consumers, whether or not they are vegan or lactose intolerant, are experimenting with incorporating non-dairy yogurts into their diets as an alternative to traditional dairy products and as a new means of getting proteins from [plant sources rather than animals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strawberry-protein-yog) and the products they produce.
