Resumo: In recent years, the search for natural foods has been increasing. In this category, the most sought are lactose-free, cholesterol-free and vegetarian and or vegan products. Nowadays, in the Brazilian market the product most used as a substitute for cheese is tofu. In this scenario, this work aimed to estimate the potential of cassava to obtain a cheese-like food. Physicochemical analyzes were performed, in which the humidity was 63.38%, showing a high index, the ash had an average of 8.56%, and the pH in the range of 6.18, considered low acid. With the results obtained in this study, it was concluded on the possibility of developing a substitute food of common cheese, using cassava as a base and free from animal ingredients, besides the knowledge of its physico-chemical aspects, since it is an innovative product in the market.
