Club Lactofree Launch Event

Club Lactofree Launch Event

Last night’s launch event for Club Lactofree was a fantastically cheesy success!

A number of the many passionate community members of Lactofree.co.uk joined together in Central London to raise their glasses to the new Lactofree Cheese, which we’re happy to reveal, tastes delicious…

Jean Taylor, of Penge, said: ‘The new cheese tastes great and could appear on any table or be used in any recipe without anyone realising it is “different” from any other cheese. The texture and appearance are really good, I look forward to finding them in the shops and will definitely be buying the cheese – especially the soft cheese when it arrives in February!’

Ricki Maurici, of Wimbledon, said: ‘I enjoyed it very much, what a great event! I thought the cheese tasted great, and I couldn’t really notice any difference to normal hard cheese. It went very well with the lactose free crackers and dips provided – I tried a little of everything!’

Clare Tuck, of Islington, said: ‘Thanks very much for a lovely evening and for the doggy bag! I tried the cheese out at home – very good actually, grates well, melts well – really nice flavour. I look forward to seeing it in the supermarkets.’

Matt Carrington-Moore, of Kent, said: ‘It was great to discover that (like Lactofree milk) the omission of lactose from the cheese has not compromised the taste at all! The cheese was very refreshing, similar to Edam, with a very enjoyable aftertaste. Lactofree and Arla have yet again created another fantastic product that will help my girlfriend and I to broaden our diet a little bit more. Lactofree cheese will no doubt be a regular feature in our fridge!’

The Lactofree mild cheddar will be on sale from 2nd January 2009 and the Lactofree soft cheese is planned for February.

Looking forward to getting hold of the lactofree cheese. The other products taste great and are good for cooking too.

Why is that stores introduce these products and then do not restock just a few weeks later.

Its great that you have set up this site. Not being able to have lactose causes our daughter to miss out on so many things, mainly her favourite, CHEESE!!! Look forward to that. A nice tasting butter would be fantastic. I try to cook her the same food as everyone else using stuff she is aloud but some thing dont seem to work.For one, cheese sauce without the cheese never tastes quite the same does it! %(=caps)LOL%... Keep up the good work. Thanks…

Still not available in central london – well at least not in Tesco’s covent garden or at my local Sainsbury’s on Waterloo Road. I even went to more ‘local’ Tesco’s throughout central London and the super large one in Picadilly Circus – hopeless :-( i miss cheese and i can’t have soy!!!

I’m afraid we have no control over which branches of the major stores our products are stocked in. To make your local supermarket aware of demand for Lactofree products you can fill out a stockist request form here: http://www.lactofree.co.uk/what-is-lactofree/stockists/request/ And to confirm, Lactofree products are real dairy products simply with the lactose gently removed, therefore they do not contain gluten or wheat.

I am so happy that i have found some of your products. It is so nice to find products that taste like they should and not like nothing. I can not wait to get my hands on the cheese both kinds. Would you be thinking about doing butter as well. as in the past i had some of the stuff send from overseas. You have made my day, Thank you

Claire, the next Lactofree product to be launched will be soft cheese (coming soon!) and we will pass on your request for butter to the Lactofree brand manager.

Re: Club Lactofree Launch Event – Lactofree Support

I’m sorry to hear so many of you are still continuing to have problems finding our products. I can confirm that Lactofree is available in selected Tesco stores in Northern Ireland. Cheese is currently available in Morrisons and Asda with other major retailers following shortly. In the meantime, you can submit a stockists request form here: http://www.lactofree.co.uk/what-is-lactofree/stockists/request/ You might also be interested to know that we’re looking into making Lactofree available online, so please fill out our survey to tell us if you would benefit from this service: http://www.lactofree.co.uk/survey/

Re: Club Lactofree Launch Event – Lactofree Support

Samantha, I’m afraid that as our cheese and yogurt both contain milk, your son will have to wait just two more months before he can enjoy the whole Lactofree range!

My son was diagnosed as Lactose Intolerant and has fits as a reaction so has to be totally free we found that Pure Sunflower spread is really nice and now use it for the whole family. I went to asda today and discovered the cheese and intend to make pizza for my son. Its most welcome into his diet. Thanks Lactofree

Hi my son an I are both lactose Intolerant and we find it hard to get your product here in Ireland. Tesco has brought in both the milk and yogurt could you please e-mail me the barcode for your cheese and cream as its only then they will be able to order it in. Many thanks lactofree.
