Pukka Pies, an iconic pie brand in the UK, recently launched a new collection of vegan pies complete with The Vegetarian Society Approved vegan trademark. The brand re-worked two of its best-selling pies including the new Vegan Chicken & Mushroom pie and Vegan Minced Steak & Onion pie. The former is made with soy protein pieces, sliced mushrooms and a savory vegan creamy sauce while the later features minced soy protein coupled with finely chopped onions and a rich gravy. Both are encased in Pukka’s signature golden puff pastry.
“As the People’s Pie, we want to make sure there’s a Pukka for everyone. Shoppers are increasingly looking for tasty meat-free options but don’t necessarily want to spend hours cooking,” explained Rachel Cranston, Head of Marketing at Pukka, in a statement.“ Our two Vegan pies tick both these boxes and they’re an exciting addition to our well-loved range, with recipes people recognize and know Pukka for.
