About The Veggletto Company
The Veggletto Company was established in 2017, as the commercialisation business to take the discovery of a new egg replacement technology to the world.
The two Australian food scientist team of Dr David Lewis (Innovation Director) and Dr Deborah Lewis (CEO) founded the company with the pledge to research and develop technologies for egg replacement that offer consumers with egg-free, egg-like foods that first and foremost tasted like eggs, cooked like eggs and were healthy, nutritious and affordable.
The result is the Veggletto Technology which allows for vegetarian foods that really do simulate eggs. Using the technical expertise of Byron Food Science Pty Limited www.byronfood.com, The Veggletto Company seeks to licence the manufacturing and marketing of Veggletto Technology and Products around the world.
