Cell-Based Chocolates

Many chocolate lovers are unaware that the chocolate industry exacerbates deforestation and child labor, and California Cultured is committed to helping people satisfy their sweet tooth sustainably and ethically with cell-based chocolate.

California Cultured is developing chocolate free from deforestation and child slave labor, introducing a better version of the irresistible indulgence that simultaneously supports a healthier environment and better conditions for people. California Cultured's alternative chocolate products take on pressing issues across the chocolate industry, from the increasing demand for cocoa creating unsustainable farming practices to the vulnerable communities forced to exploit children for higher yields.

The innovative company recently received an investment from Sparkalis, the corporate venture arm of Belgian B2B bakery, patisserie and chocolate leader Puratos Group.
