Zenko Superfoods - explore the world of superfood snacking

Zenko Superfoods, founded in 2019, supplies us with more nutritious snacks based on new superfoods. Their mission is to turn those superfoods into delicious, nutritious and wholesome snacks, and to introduce as many people as possible to natural superfood snacks grown sustainably in their country of origin. Zenko Superfoods always works directly with local farmers in a 'seed-to-snack' model, so local farmers and communities get the best possible support.

They want to explore the world further and discover even more superfoods, so they can offer consumers more nutritious, wholesome and delicious snacks. Their goal is to keep involving local communities and work directly with them to build a more sustainable economy together. By working super-locally and building a seed-to-snack model, they can create a more sustainable model that puts the focus on local products that can win over the world thanks to their nutritious and nourishing ingredients. Zenko Superfoods wants to raise consumer awareness and inform them about the origin of products, hoping to create a more conscious and connected world together.

The Zenko Superfoods snacks definitely passed the test, and we're happy to tell you more about why.

Taste

First and foremost, let's talk about taste. If a nutritious snack doesn't taste good, it doesn't make the cut. After all, you want to enjoy your nutritious break above anything else!

Our taste panel thoroughly tested and tasted the Water Lily Pops and the Ancient Grain Clusters, and the verdict was unanimous: they're delicious!

They're unique in our range and a truly innovative snack. Wonderfully light in texture and simply fun to enjoy. And here's a nice extra perk: they don't stick at all. So you're guaranteed clean hands after your nutritious break!

Ingredients

Zenko Superfoods snacks contain only natural, plant-based and non-GMO ingredients. These snacks are truly unique and feature some very special ingredients, like water lily seeds and sorghum grain.

Water lily seeds are an ancient superfood, harvested at the foot of the Himalayas for over 2000 years. After harvesting, the seeds are dried, roasted and popped by the local community. 

Water lily seeds are especially nutritious and rich in fibre, helping you feel fuller for longer and supporting healthy digestion. They're also packed with important minerals and vitamins like magnesium, iron, copper and potassium.

Another superfood ingredient used in Zenko Superfoods snacks is sorghum grain. This grain is one of the 7 ancient grains that have been around for thousands of years and haven't been genetically modified over time.

Sorghum grain is a highly nutritious source of fibre, protein and vitamins, so this snack helps you go longer without feeling hungry or losing focus.

Composition

All Zenko Superfoods snacks contain only plant-based and fully natural ingredients, which are also non-GMO. The snacks are also gluten-free, free from unnecessary additives, and suitable for people who eat halal. 

Thanks to the fibre-rich ingredients, this nutritious snack can help you get enough fibre in your day. That's a great bonus, since fibre keeps your gut happy, helps you feel fuller for longer, and plays a key role in a balanced diet and preventing many chronic illnesses.

With their satisfying crunch and non-sticky texture, they're perfect for turning your break into a tasty success and satisfying that crunch craving, whether you're into sweet or savoury snacks!
