Garden Gourmet. Balanced plant-based meat alternative range from Nestlé UK & Ireland

Nestlé has been working hard to develop a range of plant-based products that appeal to all consumers, from flexitarians through to vegans. Developed with nutritionists and chefs, Garden Gourmet aims to lead with both taste and health. 

Topics

Every product meets the following:

  • High protein
  • Source of fibre
  • Meets 2024 salt targets
  • Non-HFSS
  • No red front of pack labels
  • Where possible, nutritionally better than or equivalent to the meat equivalent

In addition to the product guidelines, the nutrition team also introduced Garden Gourmet recipe guidelines, which were created in-house and are shared with our customers and consumers as inspiration for how to use our ingredients in delicious and nutritious meals.

Garden Gourmet is also a key brand in the Nestlé Peas Please Pledge to increase vegetable consumption in consumer, and the FDF pledge to increase fibre intake.
