Onego Bio Moves Bioalbumen Into Packaged Breakfast With Zen Waffles Supply Deal

Onego Bio has entered a commercial supply agreement with Zen Waffles, a producer of high-protein waffles, to incorporate its precision-fermented egg protein Bioalbumen® into the brand's products. Bioalbumen will replace traditional egg white protein in Zen Waffles products and provide structural, browning, and nutritional benefits in baked goods. The agreement demonstrates the effectiveness of Bioalbumen in a real commercial product, showcasing its multifunctionality and potential to meet the demand for high-quality protein.

Onego Bio, a Finnish-American company founded in 2022, received FDA approval for the GRAS status of Bioalbumen last year, allowing its use as a protein source and functional ingredient in various food categories. The company operates a commercial headquarters and test kitchen in San Diego and is planning to establish its flagship manufacturing site in Jefferson County, Wisconsin. This partnership with Zen Waffles aligns with the brand's mission to create convenient and delicious high-protein foods using Bioalbumen to enhance the nutritional value of their products.
