Eclipse Foods: Unlocking the mainstream market
Retail buyers have plenty of almond, coconut, and oat ice creams to choose from, but “nothing that actually tastes like dairy ice cream,” claims Berkeley-based Eclipse Foods co-founder Aylon Steinhart. “We wanted to make products that are really similar, if not indistinguishable from their animal counterparts, which is the way to unlock the mainstream market.”
Eclipse - which closed a $12m Series A funding round earlier this year - started with ice cream, but has a broad range of products in the pipeline including milk and cheese.
