Many contemporary brands are on a mission to revolutionize plant-based foods and Liven Protein is going about this by focusing on unlocking the full potential of innovative protein ingredients. By developing animal-free protein solutions, Liven enhances the taste, texture, and cooking experience of plant-based foods while offering consumers an exceptional culinary experience without animal-based ingredients.
In their quest to revolutionize plant-based foods, Liven Protein aims to replicate the “smooth mouthfeel of shakes,” the “juiciness and bounciness of meat,” and the “fluffiness and moistness of cakes in plant-based alternatives.” The brand’s process involves brewing proteins using engineered microorganisms, and utilizing under-utilized plant-based materials to grow these microorganisms and produce desired ingredients. The protein ingredients are then purified in large-scale fermenters to ensure scalability and reproducibility while eliminating off-odors for clean labeling.
