World Food Innovation Awards March 30, 2026
Author: Leaft Foods
At the World Food Innovation Awards in London in March 2026, Leaft's Rubisco Protein Isolate was named Best Ingredient Innovation — chosen by expert judges from a record-breaking field of entries across 28 countries. Leaft Blade was also recognized as a finalist for Best Plant-Based Product.
These recognitions reflect years of quiet, determined work: cracking the extraction code on the most abundant protein on Earth, building the infrastructure to preserve what makes it extraordinary, and proving that a protein can be both nutritionally superior and genuinely sustainable.
Rubisco has been waiting more than a century for its moment. We think it's arrived. Congratulations to the entire Leaft team, our farming partners, and everyone who believes in what we were building. 🔗 Full list of winners
