Product & market

Pricing

Mixed B2B foodservice wholesale and DTC retail ecommerce; public DTC pints are sold individually online (e.g. $11.99 each), with bundles and foodservice pricing handled through sales/quote-based channels.

Differentiators

  • —Designed as a true dairy replacement rather than a simple plant-based substitute
  • —Mimics dairy's molecular structure and functionality
  • —Non-GMO ingredients
  • —Allergen-friendly core products (no dairy, lactose, soy, tree nuts, or oats in key foodservice items)
  • —Creaminess and foam stability intended to match conventional dairy
  • —Chef-led formulation and product development
  • —Foodservice-ready formats (tubs, soft-serve mix, shelf-stable whole milk)
  • —Patent-pending process using heat, pressure, and plant-based micelle technology
  • —Targets mainstream dairy consumers, not just vegans
