Viva Las Vegan
The vegan movement is transforming the hospitality industry. The un-meltable cheese, bland ‘rice cream’ and brown powdered soy milk days of old are almost long forgotten, making way for a plant-based uprising that’s rich in both flavour and variety.
Dine Out has a finger on the pulse of the vegan trends that are storming the sector today, teaming up with key suppliers from across the sector to bring you the market’s most innovative product launches that are completely free from animal products. And what better time to talk all things plant-based than during Veganuary?

With over 500,000 people pledging to start eating vegan as part of 2021’s veganuary campaign[1], CSM Ingredients is encouraging restaurant and food operators to have a robust vegan product range available 365 days of the year to meet demand, as the ‘niche’ sector becomes part of every-day menus. This includes CSM giving away samples of its vegan cream and a selection of new recipes to help menus meet demand.
The recipes include a new Vegan breakfast muffin, a Vegan long doughnut for all age groups and a delicious Black Forest Cake, perfect for celebrations. CSM’s Vegan Cake Mixes in Plain and Chocolate enable a wide range of applications across the board from celebration cakes, to every day muffins to fillings for doughnuts.
