5 of the most delicious summer foodie finds

From ice creams to coconut chips, we’ve chosen 5 of the most delicious summer foodie finds to keep you happy and satisfied in the sunshine.

Don’t know about you, but summer is definitely our favourite foodie season of the year. We always find that when the weather gets warmer, the food seems to get better. When it’s sunny outside, you tend to crave healthier, fresher foods – and luckily, there are lots of amazing, new and healthy products around to try this summer.

1. Healthy ice cream

This is one of our happiest discoveries so far. As huge ice cream lovers, it’s simply not a summer without plenty of them. So, when we heard we could actually enjoy an ice cream that was good for us too, it was like music to our ears. The Nana Nice Cream Co makes banana ice creams that are dairy-free and sweetened entirely by fruit! With vanilla, strawberry and chocolate flavours, there are plenty for you to try. And, with only 123kcal per 100g, they’re too good to resist!

2. Houmous chips

These are definitely a great go-to summer snack. Everyone loves crisps, and Eat Real’s inventive products are light, crisp and made from chickpea flour! With varieties ranging from Sea Salt, Tomato & Basil or Creamy Dill, you can easily find the perfect version for you. Not only are these amazing on they’re own but they also taste great with dips like salsa or guacamole for a healthy treat.

3. Chocolate buttons

There’s something amazing about the way chocolate buttons become soft and melt in your mouth. We absolutely adore Ombar’s mylk chocolate, so when we found out about the release of their mylk chocolate buttons, we were instantly filled with nostalgia. Their buttons are made using coconut cream and sweetened with coconut sugar. And with their irresistible taste, they’re perfect for some guilt-free summer indulgence.

4. Coconut chips

One of our current favourite brands has to be Coconut Merchant. We all know how much of a superfood the coconut is, and this company has certainly utilised the food’s full potential. With products ranging from syrups to jam, their entire range could fill our list of foodie finds. However, it’s their toasted coconut chips that really stand out. Perfect for snacking, topping your breakfast or serving with dessert, they’re healthy, have a great crispy texture and taste amazing!

5. Healthy cake mix

Who would have ever thought you could buy a healthy cake mix? Well, UGG Foods have created the ultimate, guilt-free, paleo cake mixture. It’s grain-free, natural and sweetened with xylitol. All that’s left to do is add a milk of choice, egg or egg replacement, and voila! Your healthy cakes are made! These taste amazing, and will definitely play a life-changing role in your home baking sessions or picnics this summer!
