For the fall season, Daiya is releasing a pumpkin spice cheesecake that it calls the 'Pumpkin Spice Cheezecake,' as it actually features no dairy, soy or gluten. This Cheezecake dessert boasts a base of creamed coconut that is spiced with classic fall spices like cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. As an alternative autumn dessert, the seasonal dairy-free Cheezecake has a gluten-free crust that is made with tapioca starch, brown rice flower and white whole grain sorghum flour.
Daiya's Cheezecake collection can be found in the freezer aisles of supermarkets and includes other varieties like Key Lime, Chocolate and Strawberry flavors, plus a classic New York Cheezecake style.
As well as having appeal to consumers who are avoiding dairy based on dietary requirements or personal preferences, the special seasonal flavor of this free-from alternative cheesecake will be enticing to many consumers.
