as our friends in any place we have lived or visited, know us. We always come as a pair, and on the rare occasions only one of us appears somewhere on her own, it raises questions about what the other one is up to.
since the first day at primary school and we are lucky to have found such soulmates to share things with. We read each other like open books and know instantly if the other one is tired. Over the last ten years we have done a lot of traveling and have lived together on three different continents. We’ve been left with plenty of reasons to return and visit those remarkable friends with whom the time or distance never makes a difference.
which makes for a great balance. We believe in friendship, having fun, enjoying good food, life and time outdoors. Whenever we can we are always out there doing stuff.
Healthy lifestyle shouldn’t mean not having fun and having a healthy breakfast doesn’t mean saying no to a double cheese pizza and drinks in the evening. All they do is make life taste and feel good!

picking berries from the backyard and eating them out of the freezer all year around.
we have fallen in love with this vibrant, lively and exciting city, although it has taught us to appreciate home, Finnish nature and nature’s goods that originate from there.
The farmed berries from local supermarkets do not taste the same at all, fresh berries go off really quickly and frozen berries are often either too expensive or not always available. That is why in the beginning it felt natural to always throw half a year’s supply of Finnish berry powders into our suitcases on each trip to London. After making the berries travel with us for over three years, we started questioning why we couldn’t share them with other people too. We were sure that at least some people would love them as much as we did.
For a brand whose products are dependent on nature it is particularly important to provide an example of how to keep their environmental impacts to a minimum and support sustainable solutions.
We would never sell something that we would not use ourselves every day. All the credit for our delicious products go to our much loved home country and its beautiful nature, which provides us these high quality, premium, natural ingredients.
We don’t even try to be, because that would be unrealistic. We are two young entrepreneurs who are willing to find an alternative solution when the first way doesn’t work out. We are constantly developing our approach, because as in anything in life (including boyfriends, perfect cheesecakes or berry powder shipping methods), a good outcome often needs a few trial versions.
