Here is the 5-Star Point System by The Gluten-Free Vegan Baker
Malaysia (The Vegan Vuddha):
1⭐ for Appearance, Texture & Meltability
1⭐ for Flavour & Taste
1⭐ for Price
2⭐ for Overall Impression
Appearance, Texture & Meltability: Violife Cheese looks and feels like regular non-vegan cheese. It has a thick and firm texture. It becomes soft and creamy when melted. It melts well and easily on its own in less than 8 seconds (in a microwave). 1⭐
Flavour & Taste: Violife Cheese mozzarella has a subtle mild cheese flavour, however, the cheddar tastes a tad bit saltier. It tastes good on its own and also in sandwiches, burgers, etc. 1/2⭐
Price: Violife Cheese costs less than RM14.00 per pack of 7 slices which is approximately RM2.00 per slice. A monthly consumption of Violife Cheese would cost approximately RM60 per month. 1/2⭐
Overall Impression: Violife Cheese is a great attempt at being a substitute for dairy cheese that is free from preservatives and I like that it contains coconut oil. I also appreciate that the front label of the product already gives me everything I need to know about it including allergen information. I hate having to waste my time researching online about the product before purchasing it. It is a great product to try and to enjoy on a daily consumption if money is not a problem. As a gluten-free vegan, I admire the conscientious efforts of this cheese company. However, I am not totally impressed yet. 1⭐
Verdict: 3⭐⭐⭐ (out of 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)
