For our müesli we source as much oat flakes as possible from Switzerland. We support Swiss oat farmers who direct their production on the principles of regenerative agriculture and focus on healthy soils: www.agricultura-regeneratio.ch.
Nevertheless, the demand for Swiss oats is bigger than the supply. For such reason we have to supplement part of our needs with European oats.
Rolled oats are an indispensable ingredient for our müesli. Even the wholefood-pioneer Dr. Bircher-Benner relied on oat flakes in his original Birchermüesli recipe – and to this day we stick to it. As they contain several vitamins B, magnesium, zinc, calcium, iron and other important nutrients, they are a true superfood. Thanks to their many soluble dietary fibres they are very good for the digestion.

Similar to oats, the level of self-sufficiency for sunflower oil in Switzerland is very low, at only about 5–10%. For this reason, we not only source it from Switzerland, but also from other European countries, Africa and South America.
We need sunflower oil to bake our Müesli. Its neutral taste and ideal behaviour at different temperatures makes it the perfect choice, and we only ever use as much of it as necessary.

Oligofructose is a natural dietary fiber produced from the chicory root. Our supplier in Germany, specialized in functional fibers, processes raw ingredients from Belgium for this purpose.
Oligofructose helps the clusters remain chuncky in the baked muesli, which otherwise would only be possible with granulated sugar. This way we can do without part of the sugar – retaining the full crunchy experience.

The crystal sugar used in our müesli is made from the juice of Swiss beet.
Thanks to the sugar, our baked müesli become crispy (oder crunchy?) and are formed into beautiful clusters. It gives the müesli also its pleasant sweetness. Since we do not use artificial sweeteners for our familia products, we apply sugar consciously. How much sugar we use for each müesli is always a compromise between enjoyment and health.
In our online-shop you will find an overview of the products with little or no added sugar.

The coconut flakes used in our Müesli are from the Philippines. The natural flavour and taste are preserved by drying the coconut flesh and grinding it into delicious, delicate shaved coconut – without using sweeteners or additives. Our coconut flakes are, of course, subject to stringent requirements in relation to quality and social standards.

The whole wheat-flour used in our müesli originates from Swiss wholegrain wheat and rye. The high proportion of husks in whole wheat-flour gives it a stronger taste. The content of vitamins (B1, E), minerals and fibers is much higher compared to light flour.

We use low-fat cocoa powder and cocoa beans from West Africa (Nigeria, Cameroon, Ghana and Ivory Coast). Cocoa is rich in protein and contains a large amount of fibre. Pure cocoa powder also contains magnesium, potassium and valuable antioxidants that protect our cells from free radicals and premature ageing.

We source most of our corn flakes from a Swiss supplier. The corn for our corn flakes comes from Italy. The Corn Flakes stand out due to the fact that, despite their crunchy consistency, they are free of refined sugar. They contain only a very small amount (<2%) of apple juice concentrate for colour and flavour.

The vanillin complements the inherent flavour of the müesli with its slightly creamy note. Depending on the extraction method and the origin of the raw materials, the vanilla flavour can have a floral or even smoky taste. The vanillin used in this müesli comes from Singapore.
