When it comes to that unmistakeable choc-malt taste and iconic crunch, Aussies know ‘You’ve Gotta Be Made of MILO’. And now MILO lovers looking for a delicious dairy alternative can rejoice with the launch of MILO Plant Based.
The classic favourite has entered a new market with a dairy alternative option that doesn’t compromise on the nostalgic taste that Australians grew up with.
Nestlé Dairy Business Manager Anna Stewart said that with more Aussies turning to dairy alternatives, it was time for more MILO fans to be able to enjoy the classic taste of MILO.
“As we know people are looking for more plant based products, it was time to look at how MILO could evolve to offer more options that don’t compromise on taste,” Ms Stewart said.
“MILO Plant Based is created using the same core ingredients as original MILO – malt, barley and cocoa, but we’ve taken out the milk powder, reduced the added sugar, and added plant based ingredients from soy and oats.”
MILO Plant Based is a vegan friendly option made from no animal ingredients.
