The Minds Behind
The Perfect Crunch.
We are two UT Austin students obsessed with recreating the ultimate chocolate-covered snack. We combined data-driven testing with kitchen biochemistry to build a snack that stays perfectly crispy.
Michael
UT Austin · Statistics & Data Science
Michael views food through the lens of data and distributions. He spent weeks graphing batch results to pinpoint the exact ratio of chocolate weight to fruit density. If a batch isn't mathematically optimized for flavor distribution, it doesn't make the cut.

Timothy
UT Austin · Biochemistry
Timothy treats the kitchen like a research lab. Using biochemistry principles, he works on preserving the crystalline cell structure of freeze-dried fruits. By controlling thermal fluctuations during the artisanal dark chocolate hand-dipping process, he prevents moisture absorption—ensuring that satisfying, airy crunch lasts.

How We Started
It all started in our dorm room in Austin. We found ourselves constantly buying snacks during late-night study sessions. The options were either healthy and completely tasteless, or absolutely delicious but loaded with artificial junk and sugar.
We realized that freeze-dried fruit has a naturally amazing, airy crunch. What if we dipped it in premium dark chocolate? We got a cheap dipping set and started experimenting.
At first, the fruit got soggy, or the chocolate was too thick. But with Michael tracking data on temperature and Timothy testing chocolate tempering methods, we finally cracked the code: half-dipped. By only dipping half, we let the natural fruit breathe and keep its crunch, while giving you the rich cocoa finish you crave.
Now, we hand-craft every single batch in Houston, TX. We pack each bag full of all 5 fruits (strawberries, blueberries, bananas, apples, and mangos) so you get a perfect mix of crunch and chocolate in every bite.
