Vegan Un-Honey by The Single Origin Food Co (Sofco) is made with only natural, plant-based ingredients and it can be enjoyed as an alternative to honey. While Copper Vegan Un-Honey is made using date nectar from California’s Coachella Valley, Amber Vegan Un-Honey shares a taste of organic cane sugar grown in Columbia. There's also Blonde Vegan Un-Honey that makes the most of organic coconut nectar from Thailand.
Just as different varieties of honey have different flavors depending on the type of flower nectar was collected from, each Vegan Un-Honey has its own unique characteristics.
Poised to disrupt the industry, Sofco recently secured $1.1 million in seed funding to support the growth and expansion of its signature product. In the future, the start-up is looking to expand its product portfolio with sugar-free Nada and Gold (Maple) Vegan Un-Honey.
