What makes Mö Foods different from other vegan cheese brands?


Mö Foods stands out as Finland's first and only authentic oat dairy, pioneering a unique approach to plant-based cheese alternatives. We exclusively use oat-based ingredients rather than the nuts or soy commonly found in other vegan cheese products, creating what we call "vuusto" – our distinctive plant-based cheese alternative.


Our commitment to using only plant-based ingredients sets us apart in the Finnish market. Whilst many companies produce various plant-based products, we've dedicated ourselves entirely to perfecting oat-based dairy alternatives. This focused approach allows us to understand the nuances of oat processing and develop products that truly satisfy cheese lovers' expectations.


As pioneers in the Finnish plant-based cheese market, we've built our reputation on innovative product development and unwavering quality standards. Our position as the only domestic oat dairy means we control every aspect of production, ensuring consistency and authenticity in every product we create.



How does oat-based cheese compare to traditional dairy cheese in taste?


Our oat-based vuusto delivers authentic cheese flavours and textures that genuinely satisfy cheese enthusiasts' palates. The creamy, rich texture of oats provides an excellent foundation for developing complex flavours that mirror traditional cheese varieties, from mild and creamy to sharp and tangy profiles.


Oats naturally contain compounds that create satisfying mouthfeel and depth of flavour when properly processed. This allows our vuusto products to achieve the umami richness and satisfying texture that cheese lovers expect. The natural creaminess of oats eliminates the sometimes grainy or artificial texture found in other plant-based cheese alternatives.

Many consumers who try our oat-based cheese alternatives are surprised by how closely they resemble traditional dairy cheese in both taste and cooking performance. Our products melt, spread, and complement other ingredients just like conventional cheese, making them practical substitutes in favourite recipes without sacrificing flavour or culinary versatility.



What ingredients go into Mö Foods' plant-based cheese products?


Our vuusto products are crafted from premium Finnish oats combined with natural flavours derived from berries and fruits. We select only first-class domestic oats that meet our exacting quality standards, ensuring consistent taste and texture in every batch of cheese alternative we produce.


The natural flavouring ingredients come from carefully selected berries and fruits that complement the oat base whilst creating distinctive taste profiles. These natural ingredients provide the complexity and depth that make our vuusto products genuinely satisfying cheese alternatives rather than simple substitutes.


Our commitment to using only the finest plant-based raw materials means we source ingredients that deliver both exceptional taste and nutritional value. The oats contain beneficial components like fibre and protein, whilst our natural flavourings add authentic taste without artificial additives. We don't include artificial preservatives, focusing instead on natural ingredients that create genuinely delicious plant-based cheese alternatives.



Why choose plant-based cheese over traditional dairy cheese?


Environmental sustainability represents one of the most compelling reasons to choose plant-based cheese alternatives. Oat production requires significantly fewer natural resources than dairy farming, including less water, land, and energy whilst producing lower greenhouse gas emissions throughout the production process.


Plant-based cheese alternatives support a more sustainable food system that protects nature's ability to provide quality ingredients for future generations. By choosing oat-based products, consumers contribute to reducing the environmental impact of their food choices whilst still enjoying delicious cheese alternatives.


The ethical considerations of plant-based eating appeal to many consumers who want to align their food choices with their values. Our sustainable production model demonstrates that delicious cheese alternatives can be created without compromising environmental responsibility or taste quality.



Where can you buy Mö Foods vegan cheese products in Finland?


Our plant-based vuusto products are available in well-stocked stores throughout Finland, making them accessible to consumers across the country. We've established distribution partnerships with retailers who understand the growing demand for high-quality plant-based cheese alternatives.


You can find our oat-based cheese products in the refrigerated sections of stores that specialise in quality food products and cater to health-conscious consumers. Many of these retailers also stock other plant-based alternatives, making it convenient to shop for dairy-free options in one location.


The availability of our products continues to expand as more Finnish consumers discover the taste and quality of our oat-based cheese alternatives. We work closely with our retail partners to ensure consistent stock levels and proper product handling, so customers can reliably find fresh, high-quality vuusto products when they shop.
