If it's Carnival, then it's doughnut time—and if it's doughnut time, you simply have to try the pistachio version too. The doughnut below can be filled with pistachio pastry cream (which is essentially a vanilla custard boosted with pistachio butter), but it also pairs beautifully with ganache. Interestingly—despite our expectations—the version filled with ganache and topped with pistachio glaze didn't turn out cloyingly sweet, as the dough itself isn’t overly sweet, so it can handle the extra richness.

You really can’t go wrong with these cookies — they’re super easy to make, and no matter where you bring them, they’ll disappear in no time!

We think this question is asked in every family with kids every single morning: what should I pack for lunch??

At Mendula, we use a variety of freeze-dried fruits because nearly all of our granolas contain them—and we absolutely love them. But how is this method different from drying? What makes them so crispy, and how does their flavor stay almost identical to that of fresh fruit? Here’s everything you need to know about freeze-drying (also known as lyophilization).

If we created nut mixes for wines last year — an idea that, fittingly, was born over two pints of beer — we thought it was only right to complete the story with mixes designed specifically to go with beer.

Summer is in full swing and we can only encourage everyone to make ice cream or ice cream at home!

One of the easiest and most obvious ways to use nut butters is to simply spread them on bread. From there, the possibilities are endless — your imagination is the only limit...

We don't really need a special reason to bake cookies at home, but if it's Easter on top of that, then it's more than enough of an excuse to whip up a quick and delicious filled cookie!

Peanuts, almonds, hazelnuts, cashews and the like — we love to snack on them, but they’re high in fat, so they must be fattening and unhealthy... Or are they??

Autumn is here – time to refill those vitamin stores!

As soon as the colder weather sets in, we start preparing our bodies to stay strong and resilient through the autumn and winter months.

Our daily routines can vary greatly — especially when kids are in the picture and school is back in session. One thing’s for sure: healthy eating is incredibly important, whether it’s breakfast, a mid-morning snack, or an afternoon bite. If you find yourself struggling to figure out what to pack for your little ones each day — something that’s both filling and nutritious — or if you’re simply looking for inspiration on how to create fun, varied lunchbox ideas, we’ve got a few great tips for you!

We often hear about how important breakfast is for both children and adults, but understanding exactly why this is the case, and what we or our children should actually be eating for breakfast, is not such a simple question.

2021, you have finally arrived! I have been eagerly waiting for you. It’s hard to deny that we tend to attribute almost magical power to the New Year (or even the winter solstice). I believe we shouldn’t be critical of this belief! Let’s celebrate the renewal of nature, the return of the light, and use this cycle and repetition as an opportunity to gain momentum once again!

In this blog post, we’d like to introduce you to our experts. As much as we’d love to know everything, the truth is, we don’t — and there are certain topics where we wouldn’t feel right giving you tips, advice, or ideas based solely on information found online. That’s why we searched far and wide to bring together a team we can fully trust — professionals who are up-to-date, thorough, and truly knowledgeable in their fields.

2019-ben a SPAR Hungaricool innovációs versenyének legjobb 20 terméke közé választotta SPAR és az AMC zsűrije a magkrémjeinket és a granoláinkat. A győztesek közé végül a granoláink kerültek.

Does Nutella need an introduction? A childhood (and adulthood?) favorite for breakfast, a classic pancake filling, a beloved treat. But what about the ingredients? Sugar, palm oil, hazelnuts (13%), milk powder, cocoa powder, etc... Although it's sold as a hazelnut spread, based on its ingredients, it would be more accurate to call it a palm oil-sugar cream or sugary palm fat. Nutella contains a whopping 56% sugar! And only 13% hazelnuts…

Super delicious and perfect for spring! These cookies are made with a tender pistachio-almond shortbread and filled with zesty lemon cream. Highly recommended to double the batch! :)

I’ve had my eye on this recipe for a long time, and I finally got around to making it — I really shouldn’t have waited this long. It’s my current favorite raw dessert — absolutely brilliant!

I brought you another healthy breakfast idea: a fantastic paleo bread packed with all kinds of goodies like apple, carrot, almond flour, and almond butter... It's a dream on its own, but I always boost it with a little homemade jam or peanut butter.

I think I’ve mentioned before that my husband is the least sweet-toothed person in the family. In fact, he’s perfectly fine without desserts altogether. Well… he had **two glasses** of this almond-chocolate pudding. I’d love to quote exactly what he said about how good it was, but let’s just say — his choice of words wouldn’t quite fit the tone of this blog.

Every child loves pancakes. And most adults too. With our healthy pancake ideas, we’d like to inspire and offer tips so you can sneak fresh fruits and nuts into this popular dessert and gently guide your family toward more mindful eating.

A zöldségeket keverd rizzsel, vagy rizstésztával, adj hozzá csirkét, garnélát, vagy tofut, hogy kompletté tedd a fogást. De izgalmas thai levest is készíthetsz, a hozzáadott földimogyorókrém a rengeteg friss fűszerrel karakteressé és tartalmassá teszi az ételt.
