Goodbye Sugar! Hello Elli Sweetness
07.15.14
We just discovered Orange County based, Elli Quark, the first spoonable German-style quark cheese to hit the U.S. market. Think cottage cheese but with a smooth texture similar to Greek yogurt. Here’s the skinny, there’s less than 90 calories in a 6 oz. cup, and there’s no fat or added sugar. Each cup is high in protein (14 to 17 grams) and calcium, low in sodium and free of rBST, gelatin, gluten and GMOs.
Elli Quark Founder Preya Patel Bhakta, was on a mission to eat healthier at home with her husband Sachin, and after much investigating she found that the beloved German quark could not be found in the U.S. So they booked a flight to Germany to learn everything about the fave German dairy product.
Fast-forward to today, and now Elli Quark is available at Whole Foods Markets and other natural food stores. You can choose from plain, strawberry, pineapple, lemon, and red velvet. It’s also great for baking and cooking since it’s a lighter substitute for creams and cheeses.
