Our Story
Nekstella is a health food company dedicated to creating delicious sugar-free health foods from Nature’s finest ingredients to nourish your body and enrich your health and well being.
We started by creating our chocolate hazelnut spread for people who were unable to tolerate high amounts of sugar in their diet and families that wanted to have sugar-free options for their children. Our founder was diabetic and unable to find anything on the store shelves that was sugar-free and didn’t compromise on taste and texture. Many products contained high amounts of sugar, sugar alcohols and unhealthy fats, including palm oil. He gave up the search and decided to start Nekstella.
Anchored in health and nutritional science, we carried out extensive research and development to create our first product - a chocolate hazelnut spread that was free of sugar and sugar alcohols, free of fillers and additives, and packed with goodness from mother nature! When we tasted the samples, we realized we were onto something amazing that everyone would love! We had to share it!
Since we began, Nekstella has become more than a spread! We have developed a range of foods that are sugar-free, gluten-free, grain-free, palm oil free, low carb and non-GMO to promote health and taste delicious.
In 2019, we suffered a tremendous loss both personally and professionally when our founder passed away. We took some time to heal and revisit our future plans. While the path to where we are today has shifted, our journey continues, staying true to our vision for a healthy planet and its people.
