Cosaic
Natural multifunctional emulsion enhancing creaminess and stability in plant-based and dairy products through yeast fermentation
About Cosaic
Cosaic is a pioneering company in the food technology sector, specializing in the development of creamy fat ingredients to improve the texture and mouthfeel of dairy alternatives. Operating primarily in the global dairy alternatives market, the company serves food manufacturers looking to enhance their plant-based cheese, yogurt, and other dairy-free products.
The business model revolves around B2B partnerships, where Cultivated Biosciences collaborates with food producers to integrate their unique fat ingredient into various products. This ingredient is developed using a proprietary fermentation process that transforms yeast into a creamy, dairy-like fat, offering a healthier and more sustainable alternative to traditional dairy fats.
Revenue is generated through the sale of these specialized ingredients, as well as potential licensing agreements for their fermentation technology. The company leverages its expertise in biotechnology and strong collaborations with academic institutions, government bodies, and industry organizations to drive innovation and market adoption.
