Intense slices by Vegan Deli appears to be very, very similar to Original slices. Ingredients list and nutritional values are exactly the same. We assume there is only a difference in the combination of ‘spices’ and ‘natural spices flavouring’ mentioned in the ingredients. We thought the Intense has less smell than the Original and on the taste we thought the Intense to be a bit more salty, where we also noted hints of earthy vegetables, such as potato.

Whereas Original is advertised as Swiss cheese style and Intense as Cheddar cheese style, we would not have identified that by tasting either of these vegan cheeses and overall did not find them very cheesy. In the melted form Intense also improves in texture and taste quite a bit, just like Original, so we would think that would be the best way to consume this cheese.

Apart from that, since the product is so similar and our review outcome as well, for more information please refer to our Original slices review.
