LOUISVILLE, COLO. — Danone North America’s Silk brand is introducing a plant-based milk formulated for children. Silk Kids is formulated with oats and peas and contains 8 grams of protein per serving, according to the company.
“Delivering on both taste and nutrition is imperative, especially when it comes to nourishing kids,” said Kristie Leigh, registered dietitian and director of nutrition and scientific affairs at Danone North American. “That’s why we developed Silk Kids – to provide targeted nutrition kids need in a plant-based beverage they’ll love, because mealtime shouldn’t be a struggle.”
Silk Kids, designed for children age 5 and up, is available in 59-oz carts. The product can be found on select shelves this fall, with a larger retail rollout expected in 2025, according to the company.
