Vegan Christmas options from independent companies

Rudy’s Vegan Butcher – Christmas “Meat” Feast

Rudy’s Vegan Butcher is the UK’s first permanent vegan butcher shop, located in Islington. This amazing concept shows that you can have all of the foods you currently eat, without needing to harm animals. One option available at Rudy’s is their Turk’y Roll – a vegan turkey alternative stuffed with amazing herby vegan soysage stuffing.

For Christmas this year, Rudy’s has put together a vegan Christmas “Meat” Feast which features a Christmas Turk’y Roll, which is stuffed with cranberry and hazelnut stuffing, smothered in a garlic, rosemary and thyme gravy. With this, the Feast includes Meatloaf en Croute, Christmas ham, Pastrami, Meatballs, Ready-to-roast potatoes, carrots and parsnips, Ready-to-roast Brussel sprouts with baycon bits and three types of puffed water lily seeds.

As well this, you can find a bunch of other delights on their website for order, including vegan bacon, vegan black pudding and more!

 

Sgaia Foods – Classic Sage & Onion Fillet Roast

Sgaia Foods was established in 2011 to bring flavourful vegan meat alternatives to the British market. For Christmas this year, their Classic Sage & Onion Fillet Roast would be the perfect centre piece. Made primarily from seitan, it is also stuffed with Sgaia Foods’ homemade sage and onion stuffing.

Coughlans Bakery – Vegan Wellington

Coughlans Bakery has bakeries throughout South London, Surrey and Sussex and has a huge range of vegan products. In fact, the majority of their products are 100% plant-based!

Christmas is made easy by Coughlans’ Vegan Wellingtons. This year you can feast on their Vegan Beef, Mushroom and Bacon Wellington. They have been very popular already, so make sure you get your pre-order in!

Seaside Cake Parlour – Vegan Roast Beef

Located in Margate, Seaside Cake Parlour makes some of the most amazing and intricate cakes and goodies. This ‘beef’ joint is made from seitan and even looks like meat (just without the dead animal) so will be perfect for feeding to vegan and non-vegans alike!

Vegan Business Support Hamper

All small businesses have taken a bit of a battering this year, so it is very important to support small independent retailers. The Vegan Business Support Box is organised by vegan burger restaurant, Mooshies, and features products from some of the best London-based vegan eateries and companies.

In the box you’ll find delicious treats, such as Jackfruit Wings by Biff’s, vegan chocolates by Dark Sugars, vegan pesto by Pickywops and kimchi by Eat Chay…. Plus, more!

This will make a great gift for a vegan loved one (or why not treat yourself?), whilst also supporting small vegan companies.

La Fauxmagerie – Christmas Hampers

La Fauxmagerie ruffled more than a few feathers when they opened the UK’s first ever plant-based cheesemonger. Since then, they have only grown in popularity. This Christmas, they have a couple of different hampers (most of which are already sold out!) which feature a range of different vegan cheeses, as well as crackers and a little something to drink, including a non-alcoholic version for the non-drinkers.

Mouse’s Favourite – Christmas cheeses

Mouse’s Favourite are an amazing company who have been producing delicious artisan plant-based cheeses since 2016. This year you can purchase a great variety of festive-themed cheeses including True Blue, Beer Washed Rind and even a vegan camembert!

I AM NUT OK – Christmas Hampers

Hackney-based I AM NUT OK produces carefully crafted vegan cheeses. This Christmas they have two hampers on sale, both of which feature a selection of their amazing cheeses, fruit charcuterie, butters and even a vegan ‘faux’ gras!
