Hybrid cheese offers the benefits of both real cheese and plant-based ingredients. These innovative products combine dairy with plant-based proteins, offering numerous advantages over traditional cheese. You get the taste and texture of real cheese while also benefiting from the sustainability advantages of plant-based ingredients.

Our hybrid cheeses combine dairy and plant-based proteins to offer the best of both worlds, while reducing the ecological footprint. Thanks to the wide variety of cheeses on the market, a new, flavorful hybrid cheese with a unique character can easily carve out its place where fully plant-based cheese sometimes falls short.
