Cacao Tree

Reimagining fats and oils production

We produce sustainable fats and oils that deliver the exact same performance without social and environmental impact. Using wild, non-GMO yeasts and precision fermentation, we create ingredients ready for the food and cosmetics industry.

Sustainable fats, identical performance

Our yeasts produce fats that match cocoa butter’s unique fatty acid profile. This enables chocolate with the same snap and melt, and personal care products with the same smoothness and stability while lowering the water and carbon footprint of products.

From lab to your product

Levya helps integrate fermentation-derived fats and oils seamlessly into existing product lines.

Nature-powered precision fermentation

Our unique collection of 200+ wild yeast strains from diverse biomes gives us unmatched diversity to discover natural lipid profiles. By using low-cost and flexible feedstocks we are enabling scalable, low-cost production with minimal environmental impact.
