World Vegan Day is the perfect time to announce new Product Innovation from Novo Farina - Pea & Fava Protein Chunks. As sustainable sourcing and reducing carbon footprint of ingredients, gains momentum in the UK and across the globe, there is a growing demand for innovative and nutritious protein alternatives.

At Novo Farina, we are proud to be at the forefront of this movement, developing new products that not only meet but exceed consumer expectations. Our latest innovation, Pea & Fava Protein Chunks, is a UK manufacturing first in hybrid textured vegetable protein and made with British fava bean protein concentrate.

The Power of Pea & Fava Beans

The combination of pea and fava bean proteins is a true testament to the power of British agriculture and food innovation. Both peas and fava beans are ideal for growing in the UK, making this product a celebration of locally sourced ingredients that support our agricultural communities.

• Pea Protein: Rich in essential amino acids, pea protein is highly digestible, high in protein and fibre and a popular choice among health-conscious consumers. It’s also free from allergens, making it suitable for those with dietary restrictions.
• Fava Bean Protein: Packed with fibre, iron, and protein. Fava (or Faba) Beans provide a smooth, hearty texture and a subtle nutty flavour, making them an excellent partner to peas in creating a balanced, nutrient-dense protein alternative.

Why Pea & Fava Protein Chunks Are a Game-Changer

Novo Farina’s Pea & Fava Protein Chunks are designed to be both versatile and sustainable, providing a premium quality alt-protien source for product developments. 

Here’s why they’re set to be a game-changer:

1. High in Protein: Boasting a 62% minimum protein content, our Pea & Fava chunks provides the perfect nutritional base for plant based product developments such as mock-chicken style applications.

2. Sustainably Sourced: Peas and fava beans are both low-impact crops, meaning they require fewer resources like water and fertiliser compared to animal agriculture. By using locally sourced ingredients, we’re reducing our carbon footprint and supporting sustainable farming in the UK.

3. Meat-Like Texture: The chunky texture of pea and fava protein mimics the bite of meat, making it an ideal substitute for traditional animal-based proteins. It's also neutral in flavour with no bitter notes.

4. Vegan & Allergen-Free: Our Pea & Fava Protein Chunks, like all of our other ingredients, are 100% plant-based, free from common allergens like soy and gluten, and contain no artificial additives. They’re a healthy, natural option for consumers following a vegan, vegetarian, or flexitarian diet.

The Future of British Plant-Based Protein Innovation

At Novo Farina, we believe the future of food lies in sustainable, British-made pulse proteins that are both nutritious and delicious. As more consumers seek alternatives to animal products, the need for innovation in plant-based foods has never been greater.

Our Pea & Fava Protein Chunks are just the latest example of how we are driving this change forward, providing consumers with a high-quality, locally sourced protein option that meets the needs of modern diets. 

By choosing British-grown peas and fava beans, we’re not only delivering a top-tier product but also supporting the growth of the UK’s plant-based food industry. Together, we can make a difference—both for our health and the planet.
