  We consider a baryogenesis scenario, where the difference of baryon (B) and
lepton (L) number is conserved in such a way that the B-L asymmetry in the
standard model sector is compensated by an asymmetry of opposite sign stored in
the dark energy sector. Therefore, we introduce a toy-model in which a complex
quintessence field carries a B-L asymmetry at late times. We determine the
produced baryon asymmetry in the visible sector for a large range of initial
conditions and find it easy to achieve a value of the observed order of
magnitude. While the size of the produced baryon asymmetry depends on details
of the underlying inflationary model, it turns out to be independent of the
reheating temperature in many cases. We also discuss possible sources of
instability like the formation of Q-Balls.
