Some consumers see pasta products as unhealthy due to their high carbohydrate content and Carbe Diem is a brand that challenges these negative perceptions. Carbe Diem founder Katey Alden is like millions of pasta consumers craving a healthier option and the brand was born out of a desire for pasta that looked, cooked and tasted like conventional pasta while being lower in carbohydrates and higher in fiber.
Carbe Diem makes the most of isolated protein and fibers from wheat. The joyful alt-pasta brand makes familiar varieties like penne, rotini and spaghetti with brightly colored packaging, bold lettering and imagery that seems to smile.
Carbe Diem is an innovation out of General Mills’ G-Works venture studio. According to the brand, Carbe Diem's Amazon launch resulted in four times the expected revenue.
