Emmi has announced the launch of its new plant-based dairy alternative brand, Beleaf
A major dairy company from Switzerland, Emmi, is branching out into the world of dairy alternatives with the launch of its first plant-based brand, Beleaf.
The Beleaf range, which is certified vegan, encompasses a range of plant-based drinks, yoghurt alternatives and cultured shots made with almonds and oats.
There are three flavours of almond-based yoghurts to choose from including berries, mango & passionfruit and plain almond variants.
The yoghurts are available in individual-sized pots as well as larger 350g-sized pots.
As well as yoghurts, the Beleaf range also includes gut-friendly almond-based cultured shots in strawberry and plain which contain live active cultures and added vitamins.
