Discover the rich flavour and time-honoured tradition of authentic Bulgarian yogurt, made easily at home. For generations, Bulgarian yogurt has been celebrated for its distinctive flavour, creamy texture and unique live cultures. Now, after extensive research and development, we're excited to bring this authentic yogurt-making tradition to the Luvele community.
Our new Bulgarian Yogurt Starter Culture creates thick, creamy yogurt with the distinctive taste, texture and aroma that have made Bulgarian yogurt famous around the world. Perfectly balanced between mild and tangy, each batch delivers a smooth, velvety consistency and a depth of flavour that has been enjoyed for generations.
This authentic heirloom starter contains the two traditional bacterial strains that define genuine Bulgarian yogurt — Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus. Isolated from natural sources in ecologically preserved regions of Bulgaria, these cultures work together to create yogurt with remarkable flavour and consistency.

More than great taste
Alongside its exceptional flavour, Bulgarian yogurt has a long-standing association with digestive wellness. The culture Lactobacillus bulgaricus is unique to traditional yogurt fermentation and has been the subject of scientific interest for more than a century due to its role in supporting a healthy and balanced gut microbiome.
