With consumers who follow all different kinds of diets becoming more interested in plant-powered eating, President’s Choice recently launched a new vegan food range that includes decadent treats like a plant-based cheesecake. The PC Plant-Based Original Cheesecake-Style Dessert is made with a base of white beans and boasts a smooth topping made from vegan cream cheese and sour cream. The indulgent New York-style vegan cheesecake is sold frozen and can be enjoyed after it is thawed enough to slice through.
The newly launched line of plant-based products from President’s Choice also includes meatless burgers, cashew-based dips, chicken-free cutlets and more.
Plant-based desserts have the potential to appeal to anyone with a sweet tooth and still provide a gateway to healthier eating.
