Soy milk’s growing popularity has led White Wave to launch the first TV effort for its Silk brand.

“Soy milk has become mainstream, [so] we’re finally able to use mainstream media to communicate our brand message,” said Mary Adams, director of marketing at the Boulder, Colo.-based client.

Two 30-second spots from Arnold, Boston, are testing this month in Philadelphia, along with print, promotions and grassroots marketing. White Wave spent an estimated $15-20 million on advertising in 2002.

In one execution, a strip of bacon and some cheese enlist the aid of a foil-wrapped item to plan the demise of a carton of soy milk.
