Snack seasonings with bold, contrasting flavours for a generation that craves excitement

Life moves fast – but flavour doesn’t have to follow the rules. Escape the Boring is our boldest snack seasoning concept yet, made for those craving a little rebellion in every bite. Smooth meets spicy, sweet collides with heat – delivering unexpected twists that break the rules and the routine. Perfect for brands ready to push boundaries, surprise consumers, and deliver unforgettable snacking moments.

Break Rules, Not Flavour

Escape the Boring is all about flavour that hits different. This concept combines unexpected pairings to create snack seasonings that challenge the norm and excite the senses. From the sweet heat of Honey & Chili or Pineapple & Jalapeño, to the smoky indulgence of Sugar Glaze & Hickory Smoke and Maple & Bacon, each blend delivers contrast with character. Explore tangy, fruity twists like Balsamic & Raspberry or Kimchi & Lime, and sweet-salty sensations like Golden Bliss & Salty Bite. These bold, layered seasonings invite snackers to pause, indulge, and discover something truly different – perfect for brands that dare to stand out.

Reaching Gen Z takes more than taste – it takes emotion, relevance, and bold flavour. We help brands turn snacks into statements.

The Hügli exhibition stand at a local exhibition in Germany could subsequently be reused in a new form. Numerous rocking horses were produced from the cardboard walls. A recycling project in the sense of sustainability.
