PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To industrially produce a large amount of cerebroside using a fungal material that is stable in quality and can be stably supplied without depending on animal and plant materials. SOLUTION: A large amount of fungi such as yeast (for example, Saccharomyces kluyveri), filamentous fungi (for example, Aspergillus oryzae) and mushrooms (for example, maitake Grifola frodosa) are cultured in a beet molasses medium, and the cell body is extracted with an organic solvent. Industrial production. Further, if the solvent extract is subjected to a freezing treatment, the purity of cerebroside can be further increased, and the amount of cerebroside accumulated can be increased by applying stress to the cells.
