Cocoa Butter Identical — fermented from yeast. Not an equivalent or a substitute: compositionally identical to cocoa butter.
Overview
The next step after ChoViva: replacing cocoa butter and other tropical and specialty fats. Living yeast cultures can produce virtually any fat structure and composition — and our engineers have built a platform around them to deliver custom fats and oils.
ChoViva Butter outperforms today's confectionery plant-fat blends. It isn't a 'Cocoa Butter Equivalent' or 'Substitute' — it's compositionally identical to conventional cocoa butter, with the same snap, melt and velvety texture.
The technology
Cultivated yeasts produce the full spectrum of fat and oil types found across plants and animals — steered by fermentation conditions to the exact fat you need.
An ancient method brought to the next level: fine-tuned cultivation triggers the right biology to yield a fat compositionally identical to cocoa butter.
