CRESCENT CITY CULTURES

Tempeh was the catalyst launching Cameron “Camembert” Mancini into the plant-based fermenting business. Unable to find quality, unpasteurized tempeh, he tried making it at home with great success.

Specializing in fresh soy-free tempeh, natto and black garlic, he offers a variety of microbiome friendly funky foods and unique vegan products including cultured vegan butters and flavored salts. Recently added to his repertoire is Smoked Black Garlic Salt, which you’ll find in our Pantry section.
