There is no more denying it, plant-based foods are booming and consumers are increasingly gravitating towards food without animal products. The rise of plant-based food is a huge gamechanger for the food sector. Aware of this development, Aviko Rixona, a renowned producer of dried potato products, was eager to explore the potential of extracting even more added value from potatoes! The company is now the first in the market to launch Potato Cheezz: the new plant-based alternative to cheese, made from potatoes. 

Potato Cheezz looks like cheese, tastes like cheese and has a similar texture to cheese. What makes this plant-based alternative to cheese so unique and innovative? Potato Cheezz is salt-free, fat-free and contains natural fibres! This makes Potato Cheezz suitable to use for fat-reduced and salt-reduced applications. Potato Cheezz is completely in line with the growing consumer demand to eat more plant-based and eco-friendly.
