Of all the food trends to gain traction in 2020, indulgence was high up on the list.

The NPD ‘opens up the potential for a variety of new plant-based recipes and meals for our conumers’, said Oatly
Oatly is hoping to challenge Philadelphia with a trio of plant-based spreads as well as a new Whippable SKU.
The dairy alternatives pioneer’s Creamy Spreads – launching in Plain, Garlic & Cucumber and Tomato & Basil flavours – are said to offer the same consistency as traditional soft cheeses on the market (rsp: £1.80/150g).
Oatly has also launched a new Whippable Creamy Oat SKU aimed at home bakers (rsp: £1.20/250ml).
All of its new launches are made with plant-based saturated fat which “helps Oatly’s products to perform and taste similar to their dairy counterpart”, said the brand, adding it was “an amazing ingredient because it doesn’t contain trans-fat the way that partially hydrogenated oils do”.
