Eighth Day Foods is a unique innovation company reshaping the approach to the growing global protein crisis with a healthy, sustainable and delicious plant-based protein—LUPREME.

Using unprocessed sweet lupins and our patented Rapid Solid-State Fermentation (RSSF) to combine the best of plants and fermentation, we have created a ready-to-cook protein that excels in taste, health, versatility and affordability. LUPREME provides traditional food manufacturers new ranges of plant-based products, and existing plant-based food manufacturers fresh opportunities to develop ranges of quality new products. It also allows them to replace more expensive ingredients in products with the more cost effective LUPREME, and deliver premium quality at a price on parity with meat.

Not only nutritious as a rich source of protein and fibre, lupins are also a sustainable legume, helping to regenerate the soil as they grow. With capacity to be used to make a variety of meat alternatives at a lower cost to meat production, LUPREME is proving to be a solution to the challenge of producing plant proteins at scale, and has the tick of approval from multiple celebrity chefs.
