Plant-based cheese alternative made from potatoes
Ideal cheese replacement for the food industry

There is no more denying it, plant-based foods are booming and consumers are increasingly gravitating towards food without animal products. The rise of plant-based food is a huge gamechanger for the food sector. Aware of this development, Aviko Rixona, a renowned producer of dried potato products, was eager to explore the potential of extracting even more added value from potatoes! The company is now the first in the market to launch Potato Cheezz: the first plant-based alternative to cheese, made from fresh potatoes. 

On this website, you will only find images that showcase realistic applications featuring Potato Cheezz incorporated.

Salt- & fat-free, with natural fibres
Deliciously creamy, great mouthfeel and excellent melting

Potato Cheezz looks like cheese, tastes like cheese and has a similar texture to cheese. What makes this plant-based alternative to cheese so unique and innovative?

  1. Potato Cheezz is salt-free
  2. Potato Cheezz is fat-free 
  3. Potato Cheezz contains natural fibres
  4. Potato Cheezz closely mimics regular cheese's structure
  5. Potato Cheezz has an excellent mouthfeel
  6. Potato Cheezz can perfectly replicate the flavors of natural cheese, Gouda cheese, mozzarella, and cheddar cheese.

This makes Potato Cheezz suitable to use for fat-reduced and salt-reduced applications that are surprisingly tasty. After a cooling period below 7 degrees Celsius, followed by a few days in storage, Potato Cheezz develops a firm texture. This enables Potato Cheezz to remarkably mimic the creamy texture of cheese in various applications, without sticking to teeth or the palate. The result is a soft, melting cheese-like pleasure that indulges the senses. Potato Cheezz is completely in line with the growing consumer demand to eat more plant-based and eco-friendly. 
Potato Cheezz is the ideal vegetable substitute for cheese in:

  1. finger foods
  2. snacks
  3. pasta’s
  4. bakery
  5. meat substitutes
  6. and more

A special version of Potato Cheezz is available for use as a topping on pizza or gratin. 
Potato Cheezz is available in 10-kilogram blocks. 

Redefining juiciness

We have introduced a new root in our Potato Cheezz family: Potato Texapure. The product is more than 98% fresh potato but due to its production procedure it is a versatile ingredient which helps optimizing and improving the juiciness of the product and at the same time it delivers more mouthfeel and creaminess to the product by mimicking a fatty feeling in burgers, sausages, balls or nuggets.

TexaPure is currently being employed in meat products to substitute or reduce the use of animal fats, and it is also finding its place in the expanding world of plant-based food applications. Potato TexaPure is also being produced in the Potato Cheezz factory.

Whether you're a health-conscious individual or a product developer in the hybrid food sector, Potato TexaPure is here to support and transform your health choices.
