Plant-based food company Sunflower Family has announced the debut of its product range in the UK: a new line of protein products made from 100% sunflower seed protein.
The clean label offerings aim to provide nutritious, tasty and sustainable food options that are also free from major allergens, such as soya and gluten.
Each product in the range is made using organic, de-oiled sunflower seed protein – a sustainable byproduct of sunflower oil production. This process minimises food waste, aligning with a circular economy approach while also boosting the final product’s nutritional profile.
The new line includes Sunflower Mince, Chunks, Bolo Mix and Burger Mix, aiming to meet demand for versatile plant-based meat alternatives with simpler labels.
The Mince is positioned as a versatile mince meat alternative, while the Chunks can be used across dishes such as stews and curries. Meanwhile, the dry Burger mix can be used to create meat-free burgers, and the dry Bolo Mix to create a vegan bolognese sauce.
