Inside BENEO’s new pulse plant: pioneering sustainable protein from faba beans
Nestlé’s R&D centre in Singapore serves as the regional innovation hub for the development of plant-based meat and dairy alternatives in Asia
Nestlé is shaking up the beverage market in Thailand with a new plant-based version of Milo, the world’s leading chocolate malt beverage.
The new ready-to-drink product is based on soy combined with the unique Milo malt flavor, to provide a nutritious plant-based alternative.
Consumers in Asia are looking to include more plant-based alternatives in their diet, and Nestlé is launching versions of some of its most-loved beverages in the region. That includes launches of Milo and Nescafé in Malaysia, and Nescafé and Starbucks in Japan.
The new Milo Soy has strong nutritional values. A 180ml carton offers around 5 grams of protein, is high in calcium and contains vitamins and minerals. The carton is designed for recycling and comes with a paper straw.
Nestlé’s R&D centre in Singapore serves as the regional innovation hub for the development of plant-based meat and dairy alternatives in Asia. It contributes significantly to the innovation of dairy alternatives for both powdered and ready-to-drink beverages, both regionally and globally, for brands such as Milo, Nescafé and Starbucks.
