Leaven Foods

Leaven Foods is re-energizing the baking aisle with a proprietary shelf-stable Instant Sourdough powder that delivers all the flavor and health benefits of natural fermentation, without the hassle of caring for a live starter. Founded in 2023 by two scientists with a passion for baking, the company's mission is to elevate everyday baking and bring artisan-level sourdough into home kitchens, wholesale bakeries, restaurants, and more through a simpler, more convenient and consistent process. Leaven's flagship product, Instant Sourdough, is a 100% natural blend of wild yeast and flavor-enhancing “bacteria” captured at their peak, then formulated into a pantry staple. The result is a new product category that opens up sourdough baking to everyone, not just expert bakers. And for those who want more complex flavors from fermentation without the sourdough tang, Leaven Foods Wild Yeast is also available. From artisan sourdough loaves to last-minute pizza parties, Leaven Foods is sourdough made simple.
