Dairy alternatives are not as appealing as dairy products largely due the unavailability of a stable fat ingredient. Time-travelling Milkman (TTM) is a B2B company that will produce and sell stable plant-based fat ingredients for sustainable and appetizing dairy alternatives.TTM is taking inspiration from solutions provided by Nature. It has been greatly overlooked that inside plant seeds, fats are organised in naturally occurring fat droplets, called Oleosomes. Oleosome fat droplets are the ideal milk fat equivalent due to the following reasons :• A very compact membrane makes Oleosomes droplets as stable as milk fat droplets. • Oleosomes have shown a high potential as milk fat equivalents for creamy and tasty dairy alternatives. • Oleosome fat droplets are healthy ingredients and can be produced from European seeds without solvents.The primary objective of TTM will be to investigate how can the noteworthy qualities of Oleosome fat droplets be successfully conveyed to dairy alternatives.
