Dutch startup Time-Travelling Milkman has raised €2M ($2.3M) in funding to support the launch of their sunflower-seed-based dairy fat alternative. The startup aims to commercialize their Oleocream ingredient by introducing cream cheeses and desserts that are dairy-free and appealing to consumers seeking healthier and sustainable food options.

Time-Travelling Milkman's innovative production method preserves the natural oleosomes in sunflower seeds, resulting in a creamy texture similar to dairy fats. This plant-based ingredient can be used in a variety of food products, including plant-based milks, ice cream, cheese, sauces, and meat alternatives. The funding will allow the company to scale up production and bring their products to market, catering to the growing demand for sustainable and clean-label food alternatives.
