Vevan Foods, a division of Schuman Cheese — the largest US importer of Italian cheeses — announces the debut of reformulated plant-based cheese products, updated packaging, and expanded distribution for its UnCreamCheese brand at all Stop & Shop locations across the United States.
Founded in 2020 in Wisconsin, a state famous for its cheese industry, and created by dairy cheesemakers, Vevan Foods says that its newest formula marks the “next generation in plant-based cheesemaking”.
The reformulation entails a departure from the industry standard oil-and-starch base. According to the brand, it is now “pioneering a base of plant-milks and creams that allows Schuman Cheese, Vevan’s parent company, to implement cheesemaking techniques that they have honed over the last 75 years.”
The new formula comprises added protein, calcium, probiotics, and lower saturated fats, with a focus on clean, healthy ingredients. The products are vegan-certified and allergen-free. In addition to the revamped formula, Vevan is introducing new packaging that it says reflects the new bold, bright personality.

“Our newest formulation is a huge step in making Vevan a more authentic true-to-cheese experience. We start with plant-milk, which allows us to leverage our 75 years of cheesemaking expertise to deliver on a product that, not only tastes great, but is more sustainable and nutritionally dense than other options on the market,” explains Keith Schuman, Plant Based Business Unit Lead at Schuman Cheese.
“All of us here at Vevan have been so energized by the changes and developments taking place, and we’re so excited to finally be able to share them.”
At the Summer Fancy Food Show from June 23-25 in New York City, Vevan will showcase its offerings to both professionals and consumers. “We’re looking forward to seeing everyone at Summer Fancy Food Show and talking to our consumers and industry peers about everything that’s been happening behind the scenes – we’ll be at Booth #468!”
Consumers can now find UnCreamCheese products in all Stop & Shop shops. You can also find Vevan at Sprouts Farmers Markets, Giant Foods, Kings, Woodmans and numerous other regional retailers coast to coast.
