Product review: Savvy spreads

Last week I met with the lovely Jonny and Katie from a new Sheffield food company called Savvy. Katie and Jonny have created a healthier chocolate spread which tastes fantastic.

The spreads are made from natural sesame, honey, carob syrup, agave syrup cocoa so there is no added sugar or nasty chemicals and preservatives lurking. This is the healthy alternative to current chocolate spreads!

Savvy Health Spreads

Savyy spread is based on a traditional recipe which was used hundreds of years ago in the Mediterranean. Carob syrup was used by the Ottomans and Roman soldiers for energy and by Babylonian women for energy.Sesame, carob and honey which are the main ingredients all offer their own health benefits making Savvy a healthy chocolate spread.

I tried my spreads in porridge and loved all three of them. My favourite was the chocolate agave spread which I found slightly sweeter then the others. The spreads are perfect as an alternative chocolate spread for children. If you worry about how much sugar might be in supermarket spreads, swap to Savvy where the sweetness comes from honey or agave. Savvy is not as sweet as other brands but you know you're giving your family something healthy.

Another thing I love about the spreads is that they are made in Sheffield. Obviously, using Sheffield ingredients is tricky but they are made by people who live and work in Sheffield. They also have strong values and ethics as a company.
