Gü's Gluten-Free & Plant-Based Cheesecake Has a Coconut Cream Base

— August 21, 2019 — Lifestyle
One of the newest indulgent yet healthy snack products from Gü is a gluten-free and plant-based cheesecake, which is sold in single-serve pots for on-the-go snacking. The Free From Strawberry & Rhubarb Cheesecake boasts an alternative coconut cream base and three decadent, texture-rich layers to enjoy: a biscuit crumb base prepared with a blend of gluten-free flours like brown rice flour, potato starch and maize flour, a layer of dairy-free and vegan alternative to cream cheese, plus a sweet compote with real fruit pieces.

Although Gü does make some dairy-based desserts, the brand also offers other vegan variations on this new snack, including the Free From Spanish Lemon Cheesecake and the Free From Chocolate & Vanilla Cheesecake.

Notably, the product is sold in plastic-free packaging with ramekins made from recycled glass and foil lids.
