Sheese vegan cheese from the UK-based Bute Island Foods announced a full rebrand with a reformulated recipe to boot as part of the brand's initiative to keep the products relevant for today's modern consumer. The updates start with rebranding that positions the products as high-quality yet approachable to ensure they will stand out on store shelves. The products themselves are reported to have an enhanced flavor profile, better melting capabilities and even the ability to brown, which helps them perform more like traditional dairy cheese.
Brand Lead Al Flynn spoke on the updates to the Sheese vegan cheese brand saying, "We have earned their trust thanks to our heritage as a true pioneer in the category, with a portfolio of great-tasting products. The time is right to invest in the brand and we have worked hard to create a fresh look which is eye-catching on shelf. The message to consumers is the reassurance that there is no compromise with Sheese. It is a range that fully indulges the senses – a vegan alternative to cheese that is as close to the real thing as you can get."
