Descriptiontext

Cali'flour Foods is a private, direct-to-consumer food company founded in 2016 by Amy Lacey and headquartered in Chico, California. Per firmographic data, the company provides cauliflower-based food products that enable consumers to enjoy familiar formats (such as pizza crusts and related items) within gluten-free, low-carb, or vegetable-forward dietary frameworks. The company employs 11–50 people, sells primarily through its own e-commerce storefront at califlourfoods.com, and operates a Subscribe & Save subscription program offering 20% recurring discounts on monthly orders, supported by free shipping over $50 and a 30-day guarantee.

In 2019 the company raised a funding round from CircleUp and Sunrise Strategic Partners to scale operations. Subsequent public-facing signals indicate the customer base has been transitioned into the Livyond (Soursop Nutrition) ecosystem, which markets soursop-based cellular wellness supplements (Cell + Immunity Gummies, Soursop Surge Shake with a GLP-1 support blend) and a skincare line (Vitamin C Brightening Serum, Hyaluronic Restoration Cream, Purifying Cleanser, Firming Cream). This suggests either an acquisition, brand migration, or distribution partnership in which the cauliflower brand has been absorbed into a broader soursop-and-skincare wellness portfolio.

Go-to-market is digitally native: DTC e-commerce as the primary sales channel, augmented by an email newsletter, affiliate/referral program, and organic social presence across Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, TikTok, and YouTube, with a content marketing hub ('The Journal') covering ingredient science, skin science, and recipes. Pricing is anchored on subscription economics with a 20% loyalty discount and accessibility features (WCAG 2.1 AA via the Accessibly App) baked into the storefront.
