Discover our full range of artisan vegan mozzarella alternatives — from stretchy, meltable blocks and slices to grillable mozzalloumi and rice-based mozzarisella. Perfect for pizza, pasta, cheeseboards, and summer grilling.
Artisan vegan mozzarella alternatives are crafted from a variety of plant-based bases including cashews, almonds, oats, rice, and coconut oil. Each maker uses a different process — from traditional fermentation and culturing to stretching techniques that mimic the texture of dairy mozzarella. At Saporia, we curate only small-batch, handcrafted options from specialist vegan cheesemakers across the UK and Europe.
Yes — many of the vegan mozzarella alternatives in this collection are specifically designed to melt. Look for products labelled as meltable or suitable for pizza and baking. Varieties like stretchy mozzarella blocks and slices perform particularly well under heat, giving you that satisfying pull on pizza and pasta bakes. Mozzarisella (rice-based) and mozzalloumi (grillable) have different heat properties — ideal for grilling and frying rather than melting.
Mozzalloumi is a grillable vegan cheese inspired by halloumi — it holds its shape under high heat, making it perfect for BBQs, griddle pans, and summer salads. Mozzarisella is made from organic brown rice and has a mild, creamy flavour with a firm texture that works beautifully on cheeseboards, in salads, and as a fresh topping. Neither is designed to melt in the same way as a classic mozzarella block.
For pizza, we recommend choosing a meltable vegan mozzarella block or shredded/grated variety. These are formulated to soften and stretch under oven heat. For best results, slice or grate directly onto your pizza base and bake at a high temperature (220–240°C). Avoid grillable varieties like mozzalloumi for pizza, as they are designed to hold their shape rather than melt.
Vegan mozzarella alternatives are free from dairy, lactose, and cholesterol. Nutritional profiles vary by brand and base ingredient — nut-based varieties tend to be higher in healthy fats, while rice-based options are often lower in fat and allergen-friendly. All products in our range are 100% plant-based and free from animal-derived ingredients. Always check individual product labels for allergen and nutritional information.
