OUR INGREDIENTS

In the interest of full transparency we have listed all our ingredients and their suppliers. And where possible, we have used Australian grown ingredients. Ideally, we’d love to produce a wholly Australian made product, however many ingredients do not grow abundantly in Australia so sourcing a reliable supply is not possible. Any changes to ingredient origin and supplier will always be updated on our website.

 

We source the best and most local ingredients possible 

Golden flax seed (Linum usitatissimum) also called linseed

Origin - Australian grown
Australian certified organic
Supplier - Honest to Goodness, Sydney Australia and Nuts About Life Melbourne, Australia

We buy whole flaxseed as it stores better and stays fresher than the pre-ground variety. By grinding it ourselves we are also able to get a varied consistency, which give the porridges a grainier texture. 

Golden flax (linseed) seeds are a source of essential fatty acids omega-3 and 6. They have a mild nutty flavour and as the name suggests are yellow gold in colour. 

 

 

Quinoa Flakes

Origin - Bolivia 
Australian certified organic 10598
Supplier - Honest to Goodness, Sydney Australia 

Quinoa flakes are made from pressing the whole quinoa seed (Chenopodium quinoa). The flakes retain all the nutritional value of the quinoa seed. Quinoa is a pseudocereal, meaning it has some of the properties of a seed and some of a grain. It is one of the few whole grains that contain a range of amino acids including lysine. It is a source of manganese, magnesium, iron and folate. Quinoa also contains antioxidants such as vitamin E, quercetin and kaempferol. It is high in fibre and high in plant based protein compared with other grains, as well as being naturally gluten-free. 

 

 

Chia Seeds (Salvia lispanica)

Origin - Queensland, Australia
Supplier - Australian Superfoods NQ

A distinguishing characteristic of chia is that it absorbs a large amount of liquid to form a gel. We use this characteristic to thicken our porridge, which helps to create texture as well as visual appeal. 

Chia seeds are tiny and can be black or white. Both colours are identical in taste and nutritional value. They are rich in calcium, magnesium and phosphorus, as well as being high in omega-3 and protein.

 

 

Hemp Seeds (Cannabis sativa)

Origin - Tasmania, Australia 
Non-GMO
Supplier - ECS Botanics 

To be more accurate we use hemp hearts, which are hemp seeds that have had the outer shell removed. They are rich in protein and fibre and have an almost perfect balance of omega-3 and 6 fatty acids. In fact, these small green and cream coloured jewels contain all nine essential amino acids. In addition to this already impressive list, hemp hearts contain vitamin E, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, iron, zinc and B vitamins. Hemp seeds are naturally gluten free.

 

 

Coconut Flour

Origin - Sri Lanka 
Australian certified organic
Supplier - Honest to Goodness 

Coconut flour is naturally grain and gluten-free. It is a by-product from the production of coconut milk. The soft aromatic flour is made by drying the leftover coconut meat at low temperatures. It is ground to produce the flour. Coconut flour is high in fibre and rich in protein compared to other flours. It contains magnesium and trace elements including iron, potassium, phosphorus and B6.

 

 

Toasted Hazelnut Meal

Origin - Tasmania, Australia 
Supplier - Hazelbrae 

Toasted hazelnut meal is a byproduct of the production of hazelnut oil. Hazelbrae use a traditional French method of extracting the oil and then lightly toasting the leftover meal. This fine meal retains a delicate hazelnut flavour. It is high in protein and fibre as well as being naturally gluten-free. It contains folate, omega-3 and 9 fatty acids as well as trace elements copper, magnesium and manganese.

 

 

Sesame Seeds (Sesamum indicum)

Sesame seeds are small in size and have a distinctive nutty flavour. With a texture that adds a delicate crunch to foods, these small seeds pack an impressive nutritional punch.

Cinnamon has been prized for thousands of years for its unique flavour and medicinal properties.

All Spice goes by many names including pimento. Native to the West Indies, Mexico and Central America, this small dried berry is prized for its flavour. It is a source of manganese, iron, calcium, copper, vitamin C, magnesium and potassium. 

 

 

Ground Ginger (Zingiber officinale)

Certified organic
Origin - India
Supplier - Eaternal 

With its sharp warm aromatic flavour ginger is widely used in the kitchen. Ground ginger comes from the dried root of the ginger plant and contains a smaller amount of the bio active compound gingerol than fresh ginger. Interestingly though, the process of dehydrating fresh ginger creates a compound called shogaol. In addition to these compounds ground Ginger also contains trace amounts of B3, B6, iron, potassium, vitamin C, magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, folate, riboflavin and niacin. 

 

 

Ground Cloves (Syzygium aromaticum)

This unique aromatic and pungent spice is the dried and ground flower of the clove tree. Cloves contain antioxidants, the most significant of which is eugenol. As well as being a rich source of beta carotene and manganese, clove also contains small amounts of vitamin K. 

 

 

Cardamon (Elettaria cardamomum)

Australian certified organic

With its sweet, warm and full bodied flavour cardamon is a celebrated spice. The green, three sided pod is often used whole but we use the powder made from the dried and ground seeds contained within. Cardamom has high levels of antioxidants and also contain minerals such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron and manganese.

Origin - Tasmania, Australia 
Supplier - Tasmanian Sea Salt 

Evaporated from the pristine and nutrient rich waters of Tasmania, these beautiful white crystals are richer in potassium and lower in sodium than most other salts. Sea salt also contains trace minerals including magnesium, iron, sulphate and phosphorus.
