Simply Delicious
Founded in 2019, Empasta was born from a desire to create a delicious, planet-friendly alternative to traditional cheese. We believe that food should nourish not only the body but also the planet and community. That’s why we’ve crafted a multipurpose plant-based "cheeze" sauce that doesn’t compromise on flavor or values.
At Empasta, we’re all about making healthy and sustainable choices which are accessible and satisfying. Whether you’re craving creamy Mac ‘n’ Cheese, loaded nachos, or the perfect burger spread, our cheeze delivers the taste and comfort you love. Also it's free from the major allergens like dairy, nuts, gluten, or soy. Empasta isn't just for vegans! It's for anyone who is mindful about their eating. Whether you’re managing food sensitivities, improving digestive health, striving for a healthier lifestyle, or making choices that align with your values like protecting the environment, supporting animal rights, or honoring spiritual practices, Empasta fits into your journey.
Our cheeze is more than a product; it’s a way to enjoy the foods you love while being conscious of the bigger picture. With every jar, we hope to inspire people to embrace healthy, plant-based options without compromising on flavor or comfort.

Company Background
Empasta was founded in 2019 with a mission to create a plant-based cheese alternative that promotes sustainability, health, and inclusivity. We exist to provide a flavorful, whole-foods-based cheeze that fits seamlessly into your favorite comfort dishes—whether it’s creamy Mac ‘n’ Cheese, nachos, or a burger spread—all while making a positive impact on the planet.
Our founder, Matthew, has been passionate about sustainability since high school. While in undergrad, he became more aware of how dietary choices affect the environment. As a cheese lover himself, he faced a dilemma: he wanted to eat in a more sustainable way but found that many plant-based cheeses fell short. They either didn’t melt well, lacked flavor, offered little nutritional value, or were too expensive or inaccessible for most people.
Determined to create something better, Matthew set out to develop a cheeze sauce that checks all the boxes—delicious, nutritious, and accessible. Free from dairy, nuts, gluten, and soy, Empasta’s cheeze offers the comfort and versatility people crave, without compromising taste. From day one, sustainability has been part of our DNA. We carefully select low-impact ingredients and follow eco-friendly practices to reduce waste, cut emissions, and bring a product to life that’s good for both you and the planet.
