Sourcing
Our key ingredients are sourced mainly within Europe. The rest of the ingredients that we use, such as crunchy nuts, strawberries and chocolates are sourced globally to ensure that our expectations and standards for taste and quality are met.
Our granolas and protein & fibre bars are vegan-friendly – look for the vegan logo on our product packaging. Bees play a crucial role in the production of honey, and some vegans choose to avoid honey.
Ingredients
We offer different options for each of our product range, including no added sugar varieties. Check the product descriptions for sugar content details to find the best option for your preferences.
All whole grains, nuts and fruits store energy naturally in the form of sugars, but they also contain vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. There are lots of benefits from eating such natural foods.
Due to our use of natural ingredients, our recipes will never be labelled as “sugar-free” or “fat-free.” However, we are dedicated to ensuring that all our products offer a well-balanced combination of the essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals that are beneficial for our bodies.
We do not use any artificial sweeteners or sugar alcohols in our products. Our ‘No Added Sugar’ Granolas and Protein & Fibre Bars only contain naturally occurring sugars.
No, our products do not contain palm oil.
Oats, nuts and seeds store energy naturally in the form of fats, primarily consisting of ‘healthy’ fats, including both polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats that are essential for your body. These natural ingredients are also rich in vitamins, minerals, and various other nutrients.
In our granolas, we incorporate natural oils to bind the oats together. Our goal is to carefully select and blend these oils to maximize the presence of ‘good’ polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats while minimizing saturated fat content.
We are committed to reducing the inclusion of ‘added’ oils in our products and continuously strive to optimise the choice of oils we use.
Other than to bind the ingredients together in our Granolas and Protein & Fibre Bars, we incorporate rapeseed oil for its numerous health benefits, including its low saturated fat content and high levels of heart-healthy monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. Its neutral flavour allows the natural taste of our ingredients to shine, and its high smoke point ensures the perfect texture in our products during baking and toasting – making it crunchy!
Additionally, rapeseed oil adds nutritional value, providing essential nutrients like vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids, while being naturally low in less healthy trans fats. Overall, our choice of rapeseed oil aligns with our commitment to creating delicious and nutritious products for our customers.
Our products are made with natural ingredients, and we avoid using artificial additives and preservatives whenever possible.
Our Protein & Fibre Bar and Honey are gluten-free. Our Granola contains cereals with gluten, hence it is not recommended for people who are on gluten-free diets.
Yes, we are committed to using non-GMO ingredients in our products.

Yes, real honey can crystallize over time, forming sugar crystals. Crystallisation is a natural process and does not affect the quality or safety of honey. To return it to a liquid state, gently warm the honey jar in a bowl of warm water.
Yes, honey is a versatile natural sweetener! It can be used in various recipes, from baking to cooking, and as a sweetener for beverages like tea and coffee. Our different types of honey add a unique flavour profile to dishes and drinks.
Storage
The shelf life varies by product and it is typically between 12 months to 3 years. Refer to the product packaging for the best before date.
Honey should be stored in a cool, dry place at room temperature, with the lid tightly closed. Avoid storing honey in the refrigerator, as it can accelerate crystallisation. Always use a clean and dry utensil to prevent cross contamination and introducing moisture to the honey that can lead to bacterial growth and yeast fermentation. Keeping water out ensures honey maintains its natural, indefinite shelf life without souring or bubbling.
Granolas should be stored in a cool and dry place, away from any source of heat. Store in an air-tight container after opening to keep product fresh and crunchy.
