Quark-Based Meal Cups

'Elli Complete' Pairs Creamy Whole Milk Quark with Superfood Add-Ins

— January 20, 2019 — Lifestyle
After introducing consumers to quark—a soft dairy cheese—as a yogurt-like product, Elli Quark is now introducing Elli Complete as a quark-based meal cup that's paired with superfood toppers. These cups are packed with healthy fats, fiber and omegas, plus they boast more protein than four eggs and formulas that exclude protein powders, added sugars and artificial ingredients.

The Elli Complete cups are offered in three no-added-sugar varieties: Banana Nut Bread, German Chocolate Cake and Peanut Butter ‘N’ Jelly. In the clear domes that top these single-serve meal cups, there are potent nourishing ingredients like nuts, white chia seeds and dark chocolate, which help to add plenty of texture, nutritional value and all the more flavor.
