We proudly present: our new production site

We proudly present: our new production site including the first automated machine for the customized mixing of over 566 quadrillion possible muesli variations. After some labour-intensive days during the Christmas season (everything happened on January 11th, not long ago) we finished one of our most recent projects: the relocation to a new factory and the commissioning of our first “muesli mix machine”. The move became necessary due to the growing number of new products, such as our muesli bowl, the increasing popularity of our porridge, and our “mymuesli” book. Also, the more and more complex packaging and tailoring of your individual orders encouraged us to introduce additional adjustments to the process.
How does it work? Well, it‘s quite simple: first every box is bar coded, filled with your personal recipe, sealed and mixed thoroughly. Voilà, your order is on its way to your front door or the office. In order to show you the improvements, we prefer to demonstrate them through a short video, instead of long-winded and boring descriptions. In less than 3 minutes we present you our new factory hall and above all our machine, its developer and the way everything works. On that note, it’s showtime:

 

 

Rest assured, these investments improve our quality further, from the product mix itself, through the whole delivery process.

Welcome to the mixer: Goji berries, Chocolate Spelt Balls, Blueberries and many more…

It’s high time to present you with our new and delicious options so that you can discover our most recent ingredients. Therefore we have updated our homepage and added the missing ingredients, each with a short description. Starting with the muesli bases we expanded your options with our powerful Retro Grains mix, which serves a nutty and strong flavour and contains the following ingredients: emmer, wheat, kamut and spelt.
Moreover we provide three new kinds of berries for your muesli adventure! First we would like to present you with our (maybe little-known – but without doubt: magic!) Goji Berries. As a real vitamin bomb and a solid part of traditional medicine in China, they contain a lot of healthy nutrients (that’s why many stars are convinced of this Tibetan import). Our Blueberries are next in line – but not, of course, any less exquisite. This blue delicacy is cultivated exclusively for us on a small organic farm in Germany and freeze-dried in the gentlest of manners. Blueberries seem to be deeply in love with our freeze-dried bananas but also have many other ingredient friends – our suggestion is to discover the plurality of relations yourself! You have never heard of Aronia Berries? They captivate by a tartish flavour which reminds many of us of the red currant. Don’t miss the combination with sweet ingredients – it’s delicious and despite being quite healthy.
An extravagant alternative to cornflakes is offered by our new Crispy Spelt Flakes which are perfect for those searching for the particularly luxurious ingredient with an ecological flair. To enhance your muesli base we also added Plantago Seeds which reduce feelings of hunger as well as regulating your digestion in a natural way. Last but not least, we offer you a new delicious taste experience: our Chocolate Spelt Balls! They link the best out of two worlds: spelt with high ecological street-cred and tasty white chocolate for pleasure-seekers. A mymuesli proposal: they fit perfectly and taste brilliant with our berries, the blueberries for example. Curious? Check them out: http://uk.mymuesli.com/mixer

Pong Shots with mymuesli

What do you do with our empty tubes? Sure, you can use them to store various things, or make extraordinary handicrafts…

But we have another solution for you: You’ve probably heard of “Beer Pong” from your high school or college days… The goal is to land a ping pong ball in an opponent’s cup at the other side of the table… the cups are filled with beer, as the name suggests, so you get the idea – its a drinking game.

The Art of Pong Shots does something similar: its an internet phenomenon where people do awesome bounce shots in various environments… of course mymuesli tubes are close to perfect for a round of Pong Shots…

Various “pong shooters” have sent us their material. We were stunned by trashgang100′s shots, although we also saw other great shots from other shooters! Thanks to all participants and now enjoy the show…

Beat the Winter Blues with a Taste of the Tropics

As the cold winds of winter begin to blow we know you’re looking for something to beat the winter blues. Luckily for you we have just what you are looking for at mymuesli: Coconut chips or flakes.

Why coconut you may ask? Well, nothing gives you the feel of palm trees and sandy beaches like a splash of the tropics in your morning muesli!

Adding some coconut to your muesli will transport you from the harsh greys of winter to the bright and beautiful colors of the tropics. What’s more, coconut is wonderful for your health and super tasty!

Coconut is a great contribution to your day to day health. It is rich in various vitamins and minerals and also high in protein. Furthermore its sweet, milky and undeniably tropical taste is irresistible!

We know that winter can be long and hard and at times a bit dreary, but we guarantee that you’ll be chasing those winter blues away before you can even say ‘Paradise!’

A New Muesli Favorite: The Hemp Nut

Perhaps when you hear the word hemp your mind immediately conjures up images of illegal activities and women in long skirts. Well, we at mymuesli are planning to create a new image of hemp as a delicious addition to your morning muesli!

Hemp is a very versatile plant that has many uses and unique properties.

The hemp nut is incredibly nutritious and actually quite delicious! It is high in protein and contains all nine of the essential amino acids. The protein in hemp is also very digestible and can help maintain positive bioactivity.

The hemp nut has a nutty and almost sweet flavour that is delicious in the morning in conjunction with your other muesli favorites. It can have a bit of a mellow taste and blend well with other ingredients.

We think the hemp nut is well worth your time and no, it won’t alter your mental state at all. We know you were curious.

The Power of the Pumpkin Seed

Brazil Nuts

The pumpkin may be best known as a symbol of Halloween, as the vegetable is so easily transformed into a spooky light bearing vessel. But we think the pumpkin should gain recognition for something else as well: its seeds.

Pumpkin seeds, also referred to as pepitas, are the small, flat, dark green seeds found in the belly of the pumpkin. The pumpkin seeds were revered by the Native Americans who praised them for their both their dietary and medicinal properties. Pumpkin seeds have been a center piece in Mexican cuisine for some time and are now garnering attention worldwide based on their unique and powerful health benefits.

Pumpkin seeds provide an excellent dose of vital minerals such as zinc, iron and copper. They are also a great source of protein.

What’s more, pumpkin seeds are delicious. And we mean it! Their unique crunch and nutty flavor are the perfect addition to any morning muesli. Finally, as the kids go back to school and you return to your computer after your summer holidays these little guys will revitalize your eyes! What more could we ask for?! We love pumpkin seeds and think you will too.

Bananas

Brazil Nuts
Recently dried bananas have gotten a bad rap from health aficionados because nearly all dried bananas on the market are fried! This causes the banana to stoop to the nutritional equivalent of potato chips!

However, we all know that the banana in its pure state is both a wonderful and healthy food. So, here at my muesli we have reinvented the dried banana in order to preserve its superior taste and nutritional value.

Our alternative? Freeze-dried bananas!

This method of preparation not only results in less fat in your muesli but also provides you with a much more authentic banana taste! We think that bananas with their creamy, rich and sweet flavor and packed with potassium should be left as pure as possible, and we sure hope you agree!

We’ve selected the cream of the crop as far as bananas go and have chosen to use the Cavendish bananas that were originally cultivated in Southern Asia and now come to us from Colombia.

We think bananas are delicious in muesli when mixed with berries such as strawberries and blueberries, but of course you know best that bananas go well with just about everything!

So dig into the delicious taste and pure health of a muesli chocked full of our excellent freeze-dried bananas. We promise that your taste buds will be begging for more!
