Buddy Buddy

Founded in January 2020, we are a family business specialising in crafting premium organic nut butters with 400 retailers across 9 countries and a flagship show-room and coffee bar in Brussels. Our specialty coffee bar is open to the public 7 days a week. It offers a menu focused on playful signature nut butter-based drinks and food items. Each nut butter is crafted entirely by hand, all the way from roasting to labelling, in our own atelier located in Brussels. Our story We* began experimenting and making our own nut butters at home a few years ago when we decided to transition towards a fully plant-based lifestyle. We've always hated the added ingredients (sugar, palm oil, preservatives, emulsifiers) found in even the fancy-looking versions of hazelnut chocolate and other nut butters. By taking control of the ingredients, quantities and roasting process, we realised we could craft something special. So we began sharing our nut butters with our buddies. And that’s how our family business started. (*Matt from NZ and Julien from BE) Nut Butter Atelier At BUDDY BUDDY, we lovingly craft nutritious wholesome nut butters in small batches. Each nut is roasted to perfection, crushed to smithereens, mixed with premium ingredients, then jarred and labelled, all by hand and on-site, at our Brussels atelier. We put all our ingredients on the front of our label as we have nothing to hide. Nuts are expensive, but we believe some people want quality rather than additives which water down the product to make it as cheap as possible. We source the best quality organic nuts, directly from farmers in short circuit whenever possible, and without having to get them from the other side of the world. We proudly use: Italian Piedmont hazelnuts: The best in the world Stringent E.U. regulations Stricter organic standards Lowest carbon footprint Support to fellow E.U. businesses Spanish Valencian almonds: Our personal favourite Stringent E.U. regulations Stricter organic standards Lowest carbon footprint Support to fellow E.U. businesses Nicaraguan peanuts: They are the highest quality organic peanuts we could find.
