Daiya Continues to Lead Plant-Forward Food Movement with Latest Innovations

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Daiya Foods, the leader and creator of deliciously dairy, gluten and soy free foods, today announced the addition of new Dairy-Free Dressings and Meatless Pepperoni Style Pizza to its expanding line up of plant-based offerings. The company will showcase these new innovations at Natural Products Expo West (booth #4779, Hall D), in Anaheim, CA, to be held March 11-13.

"Consumers are increasingly mindful of their dietary habits and the environment, and the demand for plant-based foods that taste great is on the rise," says Michael Lynch, Daiya vice president of marketing. "As a leading purveyor of plant-based products, Daiya is committed to developing amazingly delicious, better-for-you versions of the everyday foods that people love to eat. Our newest dairy, gluten and soy free foods include creamy dressings and our signature, best-selling pizza made with meatless pepperoni—both tasty choices that will satisfy any cravings, whether you're dairy-intolerant, allergic, vegan, or simply living a healthier lifestyle."

Daiya's new offerings include:

• Dairy-Free Dressings (SRP: $4.99)—Enjoy the rich and creamy deliciousness of dressing without dairy, gluten, soy and eggs. These new dressings feature the goodness of plant-based ingredients and are tasty drizzled over your favorite salad or served as a dipping sauce for a refreshing crudité. Packaged in a recyclable glass bottle, and available in three gourmet flavors, including Dairy-Free Creamy Caesar, Dairy-Free Homestyle Ranch, and Dairy-Free Blue Cheeze.
• Meatless Pepperoni Style Pizza (SRP: $9.99)—Crafted with melty cheeze, plant-based pepperoni (a secret recipe made in-house by Daiya's talented R&D team), and zesty sauce atop our newly improved artisan gluten-free crust, Daiya's new Meatless Pepperoni Style Pizza is irresistible, any way you slice it! Made with 100 percent plant-based ingredients, this dairy, gluten and soy free pizza is a pie lover's dream come true.

"We're proud to have developed and produced the meatless pepperoni for our new pizza ourselves as it represents a new potential platform to expand the Daiya brand," added Lynch. "We're all about plant-forward living, and whenever we develop new foods, our goal is to enable people to enjoy a wonderful experience without sacrificing taste."

Daiya's new innovations join the company's full line of dairy, gluten and soy free plant-based offerings, including Farmhouse Blocks, Cheezy Macs, Cheezecakes, Greek Yogurt Alternatives, and more.
