Baltimore, Md., March 11, 2020 – Fuchs North America, a leading maker of seasonings, flavor systems and taste solutions for the food industry, introduces the Next Level Vegan Collection – a new line of flavors designed specifically to enhance popular plant-based foods. The collection’s 4 seasonings bring craveable flavors to vegan favorites, elevating them to a whole new level.

This collection presents delicious seasoning blends ideal for plant-based burgers, vegan dairy products, and sauces. These items are also the starting point for food manufacturers and foodservice establishments to develop their own rich signature product offerings, with Fuchs’ culinary specialists at their side.

The New Collection

Our new Next Level Vegan Collection includes the following 4 seasoning blends and base:

• Creamy Garlic Sauce Base
• Mango Seasoning for Vegan Yogurt
• Matcha Vegan Ice Cream Base
• Vegan Burger Base

In introducing the collection, Shannon Cushen, Fuchs’ director of marketing, explained the strategy behind the collection. “The plant-based food industry is exploding right now. Consumers are turning to vegan alternatives for their favorite foods for a variety for reasons – primarily health and environmental concerns. Even those with less adventurous palates have been stepping outside of the comfort zones and trying plant-based foods purely out of curiosity,” she observes.

“Our newest collection offers tasty seasoning solutions designed specifically for highly in-demand vegan foods. Each of these blends deliver craveable flavors that will keep consumers coming back for more,” Cushen adds.

Fuchs helps food companies make sense of the trends and tap into where the culinary energy is strongest. In this spirit, each of the items that make up Fuchs’ Next Level Vegan Collection features innovative seasonings that are tailored specifically to meet the flavor needs of plant-based food manufacturers.

Better Burger Base

Plant-based burgers have met their match with our Vegan Burger Base! According to Chef Howard Cantor, Fuchs’ Corporate Executive Chef, this blend is designed to help make meatless proteins taste meatier. “A common complaint among consumers about plant-based burgers is that they don’t taste enough like meat. This seasoning is the solution for just that. Not only does it offer a depth of flavor, but it also makes vegan burgers taste just like the real deal,” he describes.

Yummy Yogurt Seasoning

Our delightfully sweet Mango Seasoning for Vegan Yogurt is sure to please consumers of all ages. Crafted by Food Technologist Courtney Stokes, this seasoning brings vibrant flavor to dairy-free yogurt, dips, and more.

Scrumptious Sauce Base

It can be difficult to make dairy-free sauces look and taste creamy, but the Creamy Garlic Sauce Base in our new collection does just that. This sauce is seriously good – and seriously versatile! Use it to add some flair to veggie-forward side dishes or toss some chickpea or lentil pasta in it for a flavorful main course.

Indulgent Ice Cream Base

Designed to make dairy-free ice cream more delectable, our Matcha Vegan Ice Cream Base offers a sweet, on-trend flavor profile that consumers will rave about. Food Technologist Brian Duffy developed this blend to take vegan ice cream to the next level.
