Dairy milk company, The Little Big Dairy Co, has jumped on the protein trend as consumers reach for health food options, with the launch of a high protein cottage cheese.

Packing 13.6g of protein per 100 grams, Little Big Dairy Co cottage cheese has landed in Harris Farm stores across New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory as demand continues to surge.

Little Big Dairy Co dairy farmer, Emma Elliott, said the family-owned farm’s single-source milk was the main ingredient in its non-fortified clean cottage cheese, which features no added stabilisers or thickeners.

“We know consumers want fresh, healthy dairy, and clean eating is becoming more important to more people,” said Elliott.

“Our cottage cheese is like nothing else in stock, with a simple ingredient list, a sustainably made product, and plenty of protein packed into every serving. When you take care of the little things, the big things take care of themselves – and that philosophy is what has helped us create something really special.

“Cottage cheese has had a comeback, and this is our answer to what has become an unprecedented trend that’s cleaned out supermarket shelves across the country. It’s great in fritters or even just freshly spread on sourdough – and it’s sure to be a shopping list staple that will impress the whole family,” she said.

Little Big Dairy Co is also rolling out its cottage cheese in select Farmer’s Pick produce packs, with additional stockists set to be announced soon.
