Butter which is not butter, but which does everything to appear to be butter.
Flora, that's its name, is a 100% plant-based alternative to butter.
A mixture of sunflower and rapeseed oil, coconut fat and water.
A vegetable cousin to the dairy product, but without being margarine.
“The consistency as well as the fat content is closer to butter.
We worked on the texture and taste to make it resemble a dairy product.
It can be cooked, spread, can be used in baking,” praises Olivier Blangeard, general manager of Upfield France.
One point nevertheless brings this vegetable product closer to margarine: VAT.
It is also 20%, not 5.5% like butter.
