GOAT CHEESE
Goat cheese, also known as
chèvre, continues to see steady
growth in the US. Much of this
is attributed to the higher protein
and lower cholesterol levels found
in the products, as well as the fact that sensitive stomachs find it easier to
digest.
The global goat cheese market was worth around $5.7 billion in 2022,
according to Zion Market Research, San Francisco. It is predicted to grow
to around $8.6 billion by 2030. In the US, that growth is coming from new
flavors and convenient formats.
Saputo USA, Lincolnshire, Ill., rolled out Montchevre Duos, two-in-one
flavor mashups that come in Sweet Hot Peppers + Garlic & Herbs, and
Blueberry + Lemonade varieties. Additionally, Montchevre revealed a new
flavor - Thai Sweet Chili - for its Topped Goat Cheese line.
" Goat cheese demand continues to rise, as does consumer demand
for complementary and complex flavor combinations, " said Jenny
Englert, marketing director. " With the Montchevre brand, we're purposely
mischievous in our innovations and always looking for those unique flavor
profiles and product combinations that break the norm and help us stay
ahead of trends and consumer demand. "
Belle Chevre, Elkmont, Ala., is repositioning its goat cheeses to be a
" Log in a Cup. " For nearly 35 years, Belle Chevre has been handcrafting
traditional chèvre logs. The new no-mess and no-waste cup is comparable
in taste, texture and usage to the log.

Consumer research indicated that the growing number of goat cheese
lovers have come to expect the spreadable yet somewhat crumbly texture
of the ubiquitous goat cheese log, but are often frustrated by the plastic,
vacuum-sealed film in which it's enveloped. Oftentimes, the goat cheese
falls apart when removed from the package or it remains lodged in the
film. Further, the film is not resealable and therefore, if all the cheese
is not consumed at once, a secondary container is required for storage.
That's now been taken care of with Belle Chevre's Log in a Cup products,
which are making their debut in fig, honey and original varieties.
