Our Story

Wong and a team member at the Gutsuka market stall with plant-based yogurt displays

In 2016, Wong, a vegan chef, left his home in Malaysia to work abroad in one of Singapore’s best vegan restaurants.

During his travels, he noticed that plant-based eating was often seen as a chore rather than a culinary experience. Many people considered plant-based diets to be bland and unappetizing.

Determined to change that perception, Wong spent years experimenting with recipes that would not only be delicious, but also showcase the diversity of plant-based ingredients.

In 2022, Wong established a home-based business in Malaysia which is centered around these unique plant-based fermented products catered to vegans or those looking for healthier alternatives to traditional snacks and drinks.

With this new venture, Wong not only hoped to offer his community a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional dairy products, but also to contribute to a more sustainable and environmentally-conscious food industry in Malaysia.
