Revo Foods Turns Apricot Kernels Into Protein-Packed Dairy-Free Cottage Cheese

Austrian fermentation startup Revo Foods has introduced a new high-protein dairy-free cottage cheese alternative made from apricot kernels. The product, called Cottage Protein+, contains just five ingredients and provides 17g of protein per 150g pot, outperforming traditional dairy cottage cheese in taste tests. The use of apricot seeds not only adds nutritional value but also helps reduce waste by utilizing a byproduct of fruit processing.

Unlike many plant-based fresh products that rely on formulations with coconut fat and thickeners, Revo Foods's Cottage Protein+ stands out for its simple ingredient list and high protein content derived from apricot kernels. The startup's focus on sustainable proteins and innovative fermentation processes sets them apart in the plant-based food industry. With plans to scale and further develop products using fermented apricot kernels, Revo Foods is positioned as a leader in the market for high-protein, dairy-free alternatives.
