Lyfe®

Our portfolio includes yeast extracts, yeast-based flavors, and autolyzed yeast, which, like seasonings, enhance and balance the flavors in food products. We also offer an organic option under the Bio-Lyfe® brand.

Discover Our Yeast Extract Families

At the heart of flavor innovation, our yeast extract products are organized into five distinct families, each designed to enhance the taste and functionality of your food applications. Whether you’re aiming for subtle flavor enhancement or bold, savory profiles, our yeast extracts provide tailored solutions to meet your needs.

Bio-Lyfe® is an organic yeast extract made from primary-grown Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It appears as a light to beige powder and serves as an efficient flavor enhancer. Produced according to EU organic manufacturing standards, Bio-Lyfe® is ideal for adding or enhancing flavor in low-salt soups, sauces, spice mixes, and prepared meals.
Prime-Lyfe® yeast extracts are light in color, promoting mild savory tastes and rounding off flavor profiles. Their versatility allows them to be used in broths, bouillons, soups, sauces, and spice blends, creating savory flavor bases and enhancing meaty or vegetable flavors. They are also suitable for non-savory, creamy applications when used in low concentrations.
High-Lyfe® is a family of yeast extracts naturally rich in nucleotides and other savory-active molecules, such as glutathione. These components contribute directly to umami and kokumi taste perception, making High-Lyfe® a key building block in our portfolio for delivering deep, rounded, and lingering savory flavor profiles.
Intense-Lyfe® yeast extracts provide robust flavor bases with roasted, meaty profiles and caramelized notes, contributing to a stronger savory perception. These extracts may impart a dark color.

Savor-Lyfe® yeast extracts and yeast-based flavoring* enhance specific flavors and complement cooked notes in various savory foods. They are ideal for foods that require roasted notes, such as roasted beef or chicken, and can be used in combination with other yeast extracts across a wide range of applications.

Whole-Lyfe® products are derived from primary and/or whole cell brewer’s yeasts. These autolysates improve savory flavor, texture, and mouthfeel in food products. Whole-Lyfe® ingredients are cost-effective and beneficial for enhancing savory notes and texture, particularly in low-sodium meat processing.
