Sonnenblumen statt Soja – warum wir auf SonnenblumenHACK setzen

Sunflowers instead of soy – why we rely on SunflowerHACK

Those who want to adopt a plant-based diet often face the question: What is the best meat alternative? For many, the answer has long been clear: soy . But there is a sustainable and allergen-free alternative that is just as good: organic sunflower protein – the main ingredient in our sunflowerHACK .

Why do we choose sunflowers instead of soy? Because we believe that enjoyment, health, and sustainability must go hand in hand.


🌱 Regional raw materials instead of long transport routes

Soy is often imported from overseas – even organic soy often travels long distances. Our sunflower protein comes from European cultivation , predominantly from countries like Spain, Bulgaria, and Romania. This saves CO₂, strengthens regional value creation, and makes us less dependent on global supply chains.


🚫 No soy – no allergens

Many people are intolerant to soy or consciously choose to avoid it. That's why sunflowerHACK :

  • 100% soy-free

  • free from other common allergens

This is a real advantage, especially in communal catering or retail – because everyone can eat along.


💪 Nutrient bomb sunflower

Our sunflower protein is not only well tolerated, but also pure plant power :

  • High protein content (comparable to soy)

  • Rich in fiber

  • Contains all 8 essential amino acids

  • Rich in B vitamins, magnesium & iron

And all of this is completely natural – no additives, no isolates, no compromises.


👨🍳 Versatile, delicious & easy in the kitchen

sunflowerHACK has a pleasant nutty taste that adapts perfectly to spices and marinades – ideal for Bolognese, chili, burgers, lasagne or even Maultaschen.

Compared to soy granules:

  • No soaking necessary – just let it swell briefly

  • Less of its own taste

  • No need to cook – just fry and go!

This makes our sunflowerHACK not only delicious, but also incredibly easy to use .


🌍 Sustainability that convinces

The sunflower is an undemanding, bee-friendly plant that requires little water and grows well in European soils. By using the press cake from oil extraction as a protein source, we also tap into a side stream—thus contributing to resource conservation .

In short: Our products turn a supposedly leftover plant into a high-quality meal.


Conclusion: SunflowerHACK is the future

We don't love soy any less - but we believe it's time for a new alternative that:

✅ regional
✅ allergen-free
✅ nutrient-rich
✅ and is environmentally friendly.

SunflowerHACK is exactly that.
That’s why we say:
stop relying on soy – start eating sunflowers. 🌻
