What happens when a food scientist and a hairstylist-turned-entrepreneur team up to reinvent cottage cheese? You get Fromage Protein Pops — a frozen treat that started with a $90 thrifted cart, 170+ recipe iterations, and a whole lot of sister chemistry.
In this episode, Phil Chang and Kenny Vannucci sit down with co-founders Nuala and Fiona to talk about:
🍦 How a trip to Japan and a "better-for-you" Coke sparked the original idea
🧀 Why cottage cheese (not protein powder) is the secret to their creamy, indulgent texture
👨👩👧 The surprising discovery that families — not just health enthusiasts — are their real target market
🚚 Self-distributing by reefer van across Metro Vancouver while juggling full-time jobs
🏆 Landing recognition at CHFA and the challenge of finding novelty pop co-manufacturing in Canada
