About us
Welcome to Andfoods. We are revolutionising the dairy alternatives industry, ensuring that every product we create tastes great and respects our planet. Our first product is a plant-based whipping cream and will be available for foodservice in Australia and New Zealand in late 2024. We’ve combined the mighty power of pulses with years of research from the Riddet Institute to provide delicious plant-based ingredients. AND we haven’t sacrificed the great taste and texture of the foods you love.

Thank you for your incredible mahi Jamie Wood and all the best for the incredible opportunity in China.
Every now and then you get to work with someone who brings their ALL to the job. Jamie Wood originally joined the ANDFOODS team for 6 months before she headed off to China to take up her Schwarzman Scholar fellowshipship. The brief was to help create a brand, some content and map the market for our cream. But as well as doing those things extremely well, she built costing models, interviewed and demonstrated our products to potential customers in NZ and Australia, wrote grant applications and has worked closely with Previously Unavailable on our packaging designs. How do you describe a generalist that appears to be a specialist in many different areas? I can only think of a swiss army knife (with a whisk attachment as well) and that is what she has brought to our team exactly when we needed it. From the ANDFOODS team we want to wish Jamie Wood the best for the year ahead in China and thank her for the incredible mahi she put in to get us ready to launch our first product.

Eclairs are delicious. You know what a great eclair looks and tastes like. Rich chocolate ganache topping 🍫 Light but crispy pastry 🥐 Beautifully smooth whipped cream filling (... is it lunchtime yet? 🤤 ) Crazy to think the eclair in the photo ticks all those boxes AND the whipped cream is made from nutrient-rich legumes. How do we turn legumes into whipped cream that’s easy to whip, smooth, delicious, and deserving of filling a mighty eclair? The legume we use has incredible natural properties 🌱 High acid and heat stability, natural foaming properties, high protein content, and natural emulsifying capabilities. Pair this with our fermentation process, and we’re able to create a whipping cream that’s more than deserving of featuring in your favourite eclair 👏
