UK-based coconut yogurt brand The Coconut Collab has launched Strawberry Protein Yog, a single serving plant-based protein yogurt.
Made with a coconut and almond base, the yogurt is flavoured with a strawberry compote that is free of added sugar. Each pot provides 9g of protein from almonds and soy, along with live cultures for gut health.
The launch follows the success of The Coconut Collab’s original Protein Yog, which was introduced last year.
“The Coconut Collab’s Protein Yog has been a hit with our consumers, who love that it is a natural way to get protein into their diet without any artificial sweeteners, so we’re thrilled to add a new flavour to the range,” said Anna Dominey, Managing Director of The Coconut Collab. “Like all our coconut-based Yogs, Strawberry Protein is thick, creamy, has no added sugar, and is packed with gut-friendly goodness – plus a boost of protein for a simple, delicious way to up your daily intake.”
“Harnessing the power of the coconut”
In January 2024, The Coconut Collab raised £1.5 million in Series B funding to accelerate its growth, aiming to transition from startup to scaling phase and establish a more mainstream presence throughout the UK and Europe. The company reportedly saw 15% growth in 2023, and is now said to be the UK’s top dairy-free dessert brand.*
“The Coconut Collab stems from a vision to harness the incredible power of the coconut to create delicious, high-quality food and drink that people feel good about,” Dominey told vegconomist in an interview in 2023. “Our coconut-based products deliver the rich, indulgent texture consumers want, while also being naturally low in sugar.”
The strawberry protein yogurt is now available at Tesco stores, and will arrive at Ocado in late March.
