FAQs
Is your product Dairy Free and Vegan?
Yes!
What is in your creamer?
Plant-Theory coffee creamers are made from the highest quality plant-based ingredients possible, including organic coconut milk powder, organic coconut MCT oil, and are lightly sweetened with monk fruit for a truly delicious experience. Our creamers are enhanced with B Vitamins, Calcium, Vitamin D3, and pre-biotics leaving you feeling incredible, nutrient replenished and ready to take on the day. All of our flavors come from the source such as real Madagascar vanilla bean, organic cacao powder, organic mint oil, and premium hazelnut oil. Our plant-based creamers were made to help you add some plant-based deliciousness to your daily diet while allowing you to function at peak performance.
Why powder?
Did you know that a brewed cup of coffee is >98% water? We think coffee has enough water in it. Liquid creamers are mainly made of chemically infused sugar water and they dilute the flavor of your coffee. As coffee lovers, our goal is to optimize your brew, not water it down. Our creamer is powdered and it contains no added water, ensuring the natural essence and flavor of your coffee is not compromised. There are other benefits to powder as well; our creamer is easy to store, it does not require refrigeration and it can be taken with you on the go.
How much do I use?
We recommend using 1 tablespoon per 6-8oz of your preferred hot beverage.
Can I use it in a cold beverage?
Yes! Our product is incredible in both hot and cold beverages! For cold beverages, we recommend using a blender. Plant Theory coffee creamer is a great addition to blended coffee drinks, shakes, and smoothies!
Another option we recommend is to first mix your Plant Theory coffe creamer in a hot beverage to ensure the healthy oils in your creamer fully dissolve, then simply pour your beverage over ice or refrigerate for a delicious iced or chilled coffee, tea, or anything else.
Is there a chemical flavor?
Nope! Plant Theory coffee creamer is all-natural and made with real food ingredients. Unlike other companies who rely on chemical flavorings, we think mother nature has already created the best flavors and we like our flavors to come from the source.
Other powdered creamers don’t dissolve, does yours?
Our’s does! We recommend that you follow the storage recommendations to avoid any clumping. We also recommend that you use the “slurry” technique, where you pour a small amount of piping hot coffee into your cup first, stir in your coffee creamer and ensure it's fully dissolved and then go ahead and add in the rest of your coffee! Easy as 1,2,3!
Alternatively, try the Plant Theory hand frother. It will mix your Plant Theory coffee creamer to perfection!
What temperature do I need to store it at?
We recommend that you store our creamers in a dry and dark space (out of the sunlight) such as a pantry at approximately 73-86 degrees Fahrenheit (23-30C). Clumping may result in storage areas that are too cold or too humid.
What is the shelf life?
This product has at least a 1-year storage life if sealed and stored away in a dry and dark space (out of the sunlight) such as a pantry at approximately 73-86 degrees Fahrenheit (23-30C). Clumping may result in storage areas that are too cold or too humid.
Once opened, we recommend consuming within 1 year.
Does this product contain any hydrogenated fats or mono and triglycerides (which are a source of trans-fat)?
Absolutely not! All of our products use natural ingredients from real food. We prioritized the quality of our ingredients to bring you a creamer that does not use any artificial and processed ingredients and only provides the healthiest experience.
Does it come in single-serving packets?
Not at this time but stay tuned! Single-serve packets are in development and coming soon!
How many servings in a 14 oz bag?
You get roughly 33 servings when using the recommended 1 tablespoon serving size. Our recommended serving size is based upon the reality that most creamer users like a rich creamy beverage. We have plenty of customers who actually use half the recommended serving size and are plenty satisfied.
Does this taste like coconut?
Yes, it has a slight coconut taste, the coffee creamer has a coconut base which makes it incredibly delicious and creamy!
Where is this made?
This product is proudly blended in San Diego, CA.
Is any of this product organic?
Yes, this product is mostly organic and ALL of our ingredients are premium. We source the best possible ingredients and we think our nutrition label speaks for itself! There simply is no other creamer on the market with such high-quality ingredients.
How many calories in a serving?
Depending on the flavor you select, calories range between 45-80 calories per serving. Please note that our recommended serving size is based on customer feedback and experience expectations compared to traditional coffee creamers on the market. Our recommended serving size added to 6-8oz of your favorite beverage will totally satisfy your creamer cravings! Say goodbye to having to use 3 to 4 times the recommended serving size to get even a hint of creaminess.
I tried doing the math based upon the nutritional label, and I can't figure out how you came up with 45 calories. What gives?
Fantastic question! Those of you who know the standard conversion of macros to calories likely calculated the calorie count at 68.5 calories (e.g. 4.5g of fat * 9 calories = 40.5calories and 7g of carbs * 4 calories = 28calories; total calories of 68.5). In most cases you'd be totally correct, however, sugar alcohols don't follow this standard metric. At Plant Theory, we use Erythritol in our Monk Fruit, which is considered sugar alcohol. Don't be concerned, this is a very common all-natural sweetener, made from fermented non-GMO project verified corn sugar. Our sweetener blend lightly sweetens our creamer with no glycemic index impact. Also, Erythritol ranges in calories per gram between 0-0.24calories, not the traditional 4calories per gram.
So, based on the above, you have 40.5 calories from fat (4.5g * 9 Calories) and 4.24 calories from carbs (1g of carb * 4calories + .24calories from Sugar Alcohol) getting you roughly 44.74 calories, rounded to 45 calories per serving.
Is one serving (as recommended on the bag) actually enough creamer for a cup of coffee? Or is it like most creamers that say one serving is enough, but it never is?
Great question! Yes, our recommended serving size is based on customer feedback using 6-8 oz of coffee and experience expectations compared to traditional coffee creamers on the market. Please note that each person will have a different taste preference, so feel free to use more or less based on your taste preference. We believe in being honest in our recommended serving size which is why we recommend the scoop size we did.
Does it need to be refrigerated after opening? How long is it good for after opening?
Our product does not need refrigeration and should not be stored in a cold or humid space as it could clump. We recommend consuming within one year of opening.
Does it turn your coffee/tea blonde/light-colored?
This really depends on the amount used, however, our recommended serving size with 6-8oz of the hot beverage of your choice will change the color of the beverage and lighten it up.
