Did you know?

Did you know that avocado oil should be kept in a dark bottle? This will protect it from sunlight, which over time will turn the oil rancid. This not only destroys the all-important antioxidants; it can also trigger harmful free radicals that contribute to cell damage.

Geography.

Sustainably made in the Alpine Region of Victoria   

Cold-pressed and unrefined, meaning that nothing has been added or taken away. Once the oil is pressed it is stored in stainless steel tanks for 5 days before bottling so any seed particles can settle. 

Hot tip.

Add pumpkin seed oil mixed in with apple cider vinegar on fresh green salads, or warm potato and bean salads. 

Marinade meat, drizzle over steamed vegetables or pasta plus it gives delicious results in baking or even ty it mixed in ice cream to add a deliciously nutty flavour.
