Growing A Cottage Cheese Pudding Brand With The Founder Of Curd

Monica McClellan is the founder of Curd, a modern take on pudding made from real cottage cheese. She started the company during her postpartum period, when she was looking for foods that were both deeply nourishing and genuinely satisfying, but kept coming up short.

Frustrated by options that leaned heavily on protein powders, artificial ingredients, or didn’t actually keep her full, Monica set out to create something better. Curd was born from that need: a high-protein, fiber-rich pudding made from real, whole ingredients that feels indulgent, but supports how you actually want to eat.

With over a decade of experience in marketing and product strategy, Monica has spent her career launching and scaling products, but Curd is her first venture building something entirely her own. She’s currently bringing the brand to market through early retail launches and partnerships, with a mission to make nostalgic foods genuinely nourishing again. Follow Curd on Instagram.
