Cellva Ingredients is a Brazilian biotechnology startup pioneering food innovation through microencapsulation and biofabrication. By leveraging the rich biodiversity of the Brazilian biomes, Cellva develops natural flavor carriers, reduced saturated fat alternatives, and bioactive compounds such as essential fatty acids. The company operates the first privately-owned development center in Brazil focused on food biotech and has gained recognition through prominent acceleration programs, including Endeavor Scale-Up and ProVeg Incubator.

Among its flagship innovations is CoffeeCoa, a sustainable and functional cocoa replacer made from Brazilian coffee husks—an abundant agricultural byproduct. CoffeeCoa offers flavor, color, and nutritional value comparable to traditional cocoa, while reducing environmental impact and promoting value creation within the local supply chain.

With a growing network of industrial partners and international projects, Cellva is emerging as a nutraceutical biotech leader in Latin America, reshaping the future of ingredients with science, sustainability, and inclusivity at its core.
