With demand for even more sustainable global confectionery products expected to rise, Cargill announced a new commercial partnership with Voyage Foods to scale up and deliver healthy and more sustainable alternatives to cocoa-based products along with nut spreads without their traditional ingredients - peanuts and hazelnuts.
Cargill will be the exclusive B2B global distributor for Voyage Foods, expanding its traditional chocolate portfolio to bring even more sustainable alternatives for cocoa-based products to its customers for the first time. These alternatives to cocoa-based products – or the cocoa-free confectionery range - will be used in the recipe formulation for categories such as bakery, ice cream and confectionery, complementing and diversifying Cargill’s traditional chocolate portfolio to provide a broader range of solutions that are vegan, label friendly, and produced with no nut nor dairy allergens used in the recipe formulation.
Voyage Foods uses its proprietary technology to replicate products and applications with chocolate flavor.
The cocoa-free confectionery range will be available in Europe and will follow shortly in other regions globally.
