As the plant-based movement flourishes with an ever-growing raft of delectable innovations, the Plant-Based Taste Awards are back to mark their fourth year of spotlighting the most mouthwatering products on the global stage. Behind every bite is a story of innovation and problem-solving from companies within the plant-based industry. This year, the awards boast an even wider range of categories, ensuring there’s an opportunity for every product of the plant-based world to show off just how tasty they are. From tempting meat alternatives to dairy-free delights, the products highlighted in these awards redefine how consumers approach their plant-based palate.

This year, a new addition to the awards line-up is the 'Foodservice Solution' category, reflecting the burgeoning demand within the industry for diverse plant-based menu offerings. This category recognises companies that have excelled in crafting plant-based products that not only boast exceptional flavour but also offer versatility, catering to the needs of foodservice establishment In an exciting new development for 2024, products entered into the Plant-Based Taste Awards will have two chances to win with a single product entry. Products entered into one of the 27 categories will also be considered to win their overall group award, offering double the opportunity for recognition and a wider competitive advantage for those who win.

Last year’s winner of Best Plant-based Sausage was This with its This Isn't Pork Sausages, made with pea protein and 84% less saturated fat than a comparable animal pork sausage. Discover more about last year’s winners in FoodBev’s new Winning Innovations publication here.
