In a world increasingly focused on health, sustainability and flavour, Mushroom Squared is stepping forward with a bold claim: its patties aren’t just another meat alternative — they’re the future of food.
Crafted from nutrient-dense super mushrooms, these square-shaped, plant-based patties deliver a rich umami taste while packing serious nutritional benefits. Unlike many processed meat substitutes, Mushroom Squared focuses on whole-food ingredients designed to support gut, heart and brain health — all while offering a satisfying, indulgent bite.
A New Approach to Plant-Based Protein
Founded by food scientist Dr Shekhar Patel, Mushroom Squared is backed by more than 25 years of experience in nutrition and research. Patel, who previously worked at PepsiCo’s Advanced Research Group, brings deep expertise in flavour innovation and food science to the brand.
“Mushroom Squared and our innovative patty recipe is the result of 25 years’ experience in food science, nutrition and R&D,” said Patel. “Through Mushroom Squared, I execute my mission to bring real, incredible-tasting food to people and a planet deserving of products bursting with flavour, no over-processed ingredients and health-boosting qualities.”
What Makes Mushroom Squared Different?
At the heart of Mushroom Squared’s patties are maitake mushrooms — known for their rich taste and powerful health benefits. Combined with clean pea protein, the result is a dense, satisfying patty that delivers:
- High protein and fibre
- Antioxidants and immune-supporting compounds
- Prebiotic fibre and natural beta-glucans
- Gluten-free, soy-free and CMC-free ingredients
These patties are designed to do more than just replace meat — they aim to improve overall wellbeing. From supporting digestion to helping balance insulin levels, Mushroom Squared positions itself as a functional food brand rather than a simple alternative.

Mushroom Squared patties are built for versatility. Whether served as a burger, layered into sandwiches, tossed into salads or crumbled into tacos, they adapt easily to everyday meals.
Their signature umami-rich flavour comes from carefully seasoned mushrooms, delivering a juicy, savoury experience without relying on artificial additives or imitation meat processing.
