Our “back to basics” philosophy means that our biscuits are genuine health food products made according to traditional methods. As in the case of natural health food products, Eco Biscuits is dedicated to producing organic biscuits rich in grain and fibre material, without any beet or cane sugar added.
Our biscuits are sweetened exclusively with cereal and fruit syrups, such as agave syrup, rice syrup and corn syrup. In addition to natural polysugars, these sweeteners contain a number of vitamins and minerals, so they are healthy as well as delicious. Moreover, biscuits sweetened with coconut blossom sugar have been part of our range since the end of 2013. This sugar has a low glycaemic index and is teeming with antioxidants. Organic cane sugar is used only upon request, under a private label. Furthermore, Eco Biscuits uses only vegetable ingredients. All animal-based ingredients are avoided with the exception of eggs where strictly required. A real vegan product, in other words!
Between ideology and commerce
Eco Biscuits is keen to strike a balance between modernisation, marketing and the preservation of time-honoured health food traditions. It accordingly invests in modern production methods and packaging technology, whilst focusing on a number of qualities prized by consumers:
- Organic
- Sweetened with cereal and fruit syrups
- Exclusive use of vegetable fats
- Ecological packaging
- A fair price
Tastes change
The biscuits must be tasty first and foremost. A great deal of attention is consequently paid to taste, which is constantly monitored by Eco Biscuits. Tastes are constantly changing, so the company is always looking for innovative products consumers appreciate, without any beet or cane sugar added.
Packaging
Eco Biscuits products are packaged per piece, per box or in bulk.
