Nutcessity

We make multi-award-winning, sumptuous organic 'treenut' butters (made in a peanut-free facility).

Our Story

Nutcessity is a small nut butter start-up founded by me, Mike, in late 2016.

Since 2011, when I first tasted 'treenut' butter (I'm allergic to peanuts), I've been on the hunt for the perfect nut butter blend that tastes good and makes me feel good. In the end I started my own company!

We make organic, coconut-based, premium nut butters that contain no added sugar, oil or peanuts. They are essentially a stone-ground 'trail-mix' containing five ingredients: nuts, seeds, coconut, fruit and salt.

Our Date & Walnut won a Great Taste award in 2019 & 2020 and is especially creamy, with the perfect hint of sweetness and saltiness. It's also high in omega-3.

Nutcessity is also the first plastic-free certified nut butter company in the UK. It's important to us that our jars can easily be used again and again: the labels are simple to remove and contain no plastic whatsoever. We also support our charity partner, FRANK Water, by donating at least 1% of profits to them each year, whilst supplementing this with fundraising drives periodically.

We're on a mission to become the UK's finest and most trusted nut butter company. We'd love you to try our products and would recommend them on bagels, crumpets, porridge, stewed fruit, or a nice crisp Ryvita.
