V-Egg by GPI: A Versatile, Plant-Based Egg Alternative for Modern Food Innovation

As food manufacturers navigate rising ingredient costs, shifting dietary preferences, and growing demand for clean-label options, one ingredient stands out for both its versatility and volatility: eggs. Enter GPI V-Egg—a ready-to-cook, liquid egg alternative made from plant-based ingredients, developed to meet the demands of today’s dynamic food industry.

Whether you're creating savory scrambles or baked goods like pancakes and French toast, V-Egg delivers the same functionality as traditional eggs—without the price swings or allergens.

 

Why Egg Alternatives Matter More Than Ever

Eggs are not only a top 9 allergen, but they’re also a historically volatile commodity. According to data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, egg prices have spiked multiple times over the past few years due to avian influenza outbreaks and supply chain disruptions. In 2022 alone, egg prices increased by over 60%, and in 2025 they remain over 170% higher than pre-pandemic levels.

For food manufacturers, this means unpredictable costs and potential formulation delays. That’s where GPI V-Egg steps in to offer a stable, scalable, and safe solution.

 

 

What is GPI V-Egg?

GPI V-Egg is a plant-based, ready-to-cook liquid egg alternative made from functional ingredients, natural flavors, and plant-derived color. It’s designed to replace whole eggs in a wide variety of applications—from savory breakfast dishes to baked goods.

Key Features:

  • 🌱 100% Plant-Based

  • 🧪 Allergen-Free (No dairy, soy, or animal products)

How to Use V-Egg in Real-World Applications

V-Egg’s versatility makes it a powerful ingredient in both foodservice and CPG manufacturing. Here’s how it performs across categories:
