# Vegan Cream Pasta Sauces Nona Vegan's Signature Sauces are Available in Three Flavors By Jana Pijak | Published 2020-08-26 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-cream-pasta References: [nonavegan](https://www.nonavegan.com/the-products/) [Nona Vegan's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instant-noodle-bowls-and-heat-serve-meat-entrees) signature pasta sauces are available in three tasty varieties that are entirely plant-based. These include Alfredo-style, Carbonara-style and Cheesy-style. While the Alfredo-style blend boasts a savory and herbed flavor profile -- inspired by a family recipe made by Nona Vegan founder Kailey Gilchrist's mom -- the Carbonara-style sauce recreates the taste of hickory smoked bacon with a vegan alternative. Lastly, the brand's Cheesy-style sauce is a must-have for [vegan mac and cheese recipes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goodles-mac-and-cheese-flavors) and boasts a sweet and sharp flavor profile. Nona Vegan's [artisan sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/raos-sauces) will enhance pasta, protein or vegetable-based dishes and are "made from cashews and a variety of other healthy and nutrient-dense ingredients." The sauces are a vegan-friendly alternative to dairy, meat and egg-based sauces without sacrificing great taste. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 30% | Activity: 29% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Plant-based Sauces:** The rise of plant-based sauces presents an opportunity for food companies to develop innovative vegan alternatives. - **Vegan Comfort Food:** There is a growing demand for vegan comfort food options like cheesy-style vegan sauces, creating an opportunity for companies to create innovative plant-based takes on classic dishes. - **Artisan Vegan Products:** Artisan vegan products, such as Nona Vegan's signature pasta sauces, cater to the growing market of consumers seeking high-quality plant-based options. ### Where This Applies - **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry has the potential to capitalize on the trend of vegan cream pasta sauces by creating innovative plant-based products and expanding their vegan product lines. - **Plant-based Alternatives:** The growing demand for plant-based alternatives in the dairy, meat, and egg industry presents an opportunity for companies to develop innovative vegan cream pasta sauce options. - **Gourmet and Specialty Foods:** Gourmet and specialty food companies can tap into the trend of artisan vegan products like Nona Vegan's pasta sauces to cater to consumers looking for high-quality vegan options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Mushroom Cream Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organic-vegan-sauce.md) - [Meatless Bolognese Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meatless-bolognese.md) - [Vegan-Friendly Creamy Garlic Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creamy-garlic-bitchin-sauce.md) - [Cheesy Vegan-Friendly Pastas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kraft-mac-cheese6.md) - [Free-From Alfredo Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yo-mamas-foods-alfredo-sauces.md) - [Plant-Powered Bolognese Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plant-powered-bolognese.md) - [Extra-Cheesy Alfredo Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mac-cheese-alfredo.md) - [Gourmet Dairy-Free Macaroni Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daiya-deluxe-mac-cheeze.md) - [Tomato-Free Pasta Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tomato-free-pasta-sauces.md)
