CSM launches new vegan bakery ingredients range

CSM Bakery Solutions has announced the launch of a new vegan bakery ingredients range.

Available now, the Craigmillar Vegan Bakery range includes two vegan cake mixes and a non-dairy cream.

The products contain no ingredients of animal origin meaning they can be enjoyed by consumers with vegan, vegetarian and flexitarian dietary preferences.

With over one-third (34%) of consumers eating a vegan meal at least once a week [Mintel], CSM aims to tap into the increasing demand for plant-based food products with the new launch.

“The plant-based phenomenon is continually on the rise, and as the UK is one of the most vegan-friendly nations, we wanted to offer a delicious selection of vegan bakery ingredients that don’t compromise on quality, taste or texture,” commented Cristiana Ballarini, activation director at CSM Bakery Solutions.

The new Vegan Cake Mix comes in two flavours, Plain and Chocolate. The versatile mix is suitable for all types of bakes, from whole cakes and loaf tins, to individual portions such as cupcakes and muffins.

The brand-new Craigmillar Lactofil Vegan is a great accompaniment to the vegan cake mixes, that adds flavour, volume and a show stopping look to any dessert.

“Not only do the new cake mixes offer a light, airy texture that matches any non-vegan cake, the non-dairy cream is the perfect alternative for whipped creams or toppings that add that extra layer of indulgence to bakes,” Ballarini added.

“They are made with high-quality and selected ingredients for natural extra enjoyment and will enable businesses to extend their appeal and include vegan products on their menus and be rest assured they are premier quality.”
