It's been quiet here for quite a while! We have therefore decided to archive the post. If this topic is still on your mind, feel free to start a new discussion.
Good day
I have been vegan for some time now and used to eat your delicious Blévitas every day. At the beginning I assumed that Blévita was vegan. Unfortunately, after reading the list of ingredients more closely, I discovered that my favorite varieties (red spelt Blévita and green linseed Blévita) contain skimmed milk powder and are therefore not vegan. I know that there are vegan Blévitas, but I wonder whether it would be possible to omit the skimmed milk powder from all products? I can't imagine that this would make a big difference and I would therefore be very happy about this adaptation! Are there any possibilities?
Kind regards

Hello @Outback_, thank you for your inquiry and your patience. We use skimmed milk powder to round off the flavor and for a lighter dough consistency. We are happy to take your input on board and pass it on to our development department. Alternatively, we recommend the two Blévita Pure - these are vegan:

Unfortunately, no vegan options at Lieblingsblevita for 4 years. What is the reason for this?

Hello, I saw your list of all vegan Blevita products, with or without the V-label. I really appreciate this vegan range, but what strikes me is that there is no vegan "nature" Blevita and none in large packs. I miss that. I would like to buy large packs and would also like to have some without carrot, pumpkin, beetroot or herbal flavour. In other discussions about vegan Blevita, you explain that the milk powder (1) is good for the dough, (2) has a digestive function and (3) is appreciated by customers for its taste.
I would like to make a few comments on this with the request to introduce a large pack of vegan "nature" blevita with these justifications. 1) all vegan variants can be made without milk powder, so the dough should be easy to work with without milk powder 2) I cannot say whether this is scientifically substantiated and whether milk powder actually aids digestion. But either way, there are plenty of other dairy products that non-vegans or non-lactose intolerant people can consume. 3) People probably don't buy Blevita because of the taste of lactose, but because they are practical, a comparatively healthy snack and also taste good. The vegan versions also taste great. I would therefore venture to say that the difference (Blevita without milk powder) would not be noticed. This could also be tested with one of the large packs without publicizing it. Then you can see whether there is a wave of indignation. In general, I think it would be great if, instead of constantly coming up with new recipes with unusual additional flavours, a vegan natural version were offered for once, preferably in a large pack. Thank you in advance for your attention and feedback. Best regards

Hello Natura_listica, thank you for your additional points. Our specialist department tells us that our customers really appreciate the small packaging formats because they are practical to handle. When eating out, the packaging always serves as a means of storage or protection, e.g. in a handbag or a student's desk. Customer feedback like yours is very important to us. That's why we have good news for you. There will soon be an exciting new product that will meet your needs. What will it be? Unfortunately, we can't tell you yet :-). Just keep your eyes open. Best regards, Mia
There are also "non-vegans" who want skimmed milk powder in their Blévitas for a finer, better taste.
Hey, the skimmed milk powder is put in because we have a huge milk lobby in Switzerland. That doesn't change the taste.

Not true. Skimmed milk powder is unnecessary, is a fattening agent and distorts the real taste

What nonsense!
